WorldGuardConfigurationBukkit

When you first run the server with WorldGuard installed, two type of configuration files will be generated:

• A global configuration file will be generated at plugins/WorldGuard/config.yml.
• For each world, a configuration will be generated at plugins/WorldGuard/worlds/worldname/config.yml.

The options in the global configuration affect the entire server. The per-world configuration files override settings from the global configuration file for each world respectively. For example, if you disable fire spread in the global configuration file, all worlds will have it disabled. However, one world can have it enabled by copying the setting into its configuration.
