    So with the 1.3 update coming up whenever, I had a thought. With the new stuff added, if andrew would expand the map more so than it is now (I think I read somewhere that he would just be using mining world for this instead) but, if he would, how the heck does he do it? I would think expanding the map would be a pain seeing as you would have to travel over all the blocks to get them to generate. Well that is unless he is using a mod or a plugin to do this. But is there a mod or plugin that he uses to do this? I've become interested in pre-generating my single player maps but idk how to do so.

    how Andrew expands the ECC map is with a border plugin, he just sets the border to cover a larger area and then minecraft does all of the generating.

    If you travel to the end of the world you will see that there is land/sea past the border already generated, you just can't go past the limit.

    I was in a cavern on the border and there was a diamond vein just out of reach lol.
