PortalCreateEvent not being thrown

I am trying to cancel portals being created when a portal is spawned because a player traveled through a portal in the nether that didn't have a corresponding portal in the over world. The problem is the event is only being thrown when the cause is a player lighting a portal, not the creation by the server

I tested with this code

Code:java

 @EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.HIGHEST, ignoreCancelled = false)
public void onPortalCreate(PortalCreateEvent event) {
 
plugin.log("Intercepted event");
 
 
}

Did you register events?

 

Ofc, it works perfectly fine for the player lighting a portal

 

read implementation.

portals created in lazy manner, only when player attempt to enter nether, not instantly.
