The AW_EVENT_WORLD_INFO event in the current release
build of the SDK seems to report when hidden worlds are stopped,
thus providing a mechanism for anyone who can log a bot into a given
universe to discover the names of any hidden worlds they may have.

This will happen even if the bot is not logged in under the PPW of
the hidden worlds owner, and even if the bot is just logged into the
universe and not into any world at all.

So the hidden worlds aren't really hidden that well.

Of course I wish this were fixed.

Nope.. just reporting a bug.

CWLab.. look for it... somewhere. It's not in Spiral Matrix.

This is not a bug, but intentional. You can teleport to any hidden world if you know it's name.
