My game is now based on essentials v20.1 and I have noticed that many games developed with previous versions have been able to add borders. The code associated with this feature has been removed in 20.1. I would love to reproduce this functionality in my game, is there a way to add border to the game in v20.1? I'd appreciate it!

Can you give me a little bit more clarification on what you mean by being able to add "borders" in the game? Also, if the feature has been removed in v20.1, you might be able to copy the script code of that feature from a previous version and paste it into the v20.1 script.

It was a default feature of Essentials for a while, a border you can toggle in the options.

It was removed in v19 because adding MKXP complicated things (since MKXP has adjustable screen sizes), and people have generally found it too complicated to add back. (You can see some discussion on the discord here)

taynathon managed to adapt it to the GSC kit, which I think also used MKXP? But they mentioned it needed more work for standard Essentials.

Thanks, as TechSkylander1518 has clarified

Okay, thank you very much for the clarification
