Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating how WorldGuard handles world configuration and temporary world names, then compare the proposed blacklist and regex approaches. Done should mean temporary, randomly named worlds can be excluded without per-world configuration or useless generated files.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

status:pending type:feature-request
The Problem

Some plugin which depend on creating and deleting temporary worlds will not work well with worldguard; no config could define in it since they're temporary and have a random name, and plugins keep generating useless files for those worlds. So I'm thinking is there any workaround for this.

A Solution

Add blacklisted-world-configuration; or add match rule based on regex or something else.
