    -1 but for only one reason. If you are flying through a region and fly into a no feature area what happens? With fly off\disabled...you die. There are many other features who's use prevents death, and while most of us are responsible people who wouldn't misuse something like this we aren't all the people. Now if there was a pvp setting contained to a building by staff that I would support completely!
    Like pvp and then pvphc for no features.

    cool feature but doubt it’d be something that would be put into development right now.

    I also acknowledge furious’s point, and it would be hard way to eliminate that fatal threat. Overall I think it’s a neat idea, I think sleeper suggested it for PvP, so I think it would be easier to just remove the flying in a PvP zone, put it in the application for a PvP zone in a town to remove the fly/speed feature in that area. That seems more realistic to me tbh.

    +1-1 good idea but narrow it down to only a PvP zone.

    Worldguard is a huge plugin and I really doubt andrew's looking to spend resources modifying/maintaining a custom verion. There may be a few flags already that could be used but I haven't looked.

    One of the big things I want this for is grief maybe adding flags that dont allow users to place lava, and water can be great for town owners. And it may already be there by the goal of this plugin

    Yes pvp is one of the reasons but not all of them.

    I do see this as a big issue and two things can be done. 1 you can provide no fall damage for 5 seconds and use the area as expected(this option is very unlikely but possible). 2 you can make this flag available to staff only in use for events(such as the pvp arena made) so they take into factor and plan accordingly. But this suggestion isn't only about fly it's about many features that can ruin experiences such as pyro, water, feed, etc.

    If https://worldguard.enginehub.org/en/latest/regions/flags/ is the most accurate listing - those are what you should break your suggestion into.

    I can almost 100% promise you that a custom project to enable/disable specific ECC store packages (since you've mentioned fly, water, lava, etc) via town flags is something andrew won't even consider.
