The Infinity Gauntlet of New Xandar only worked on New Xandar, while the Doomstadt one only worked on Doomstadt. Maybe the merge happened in Battleworld rather than before it?

What merge are you referring to? The (sub-)domains of Kingdom of Manhattan. If Battleworld was working as if every domain was still its own universe inside the Battlerealm, then maybe when the Marvel and Ultimate portions of the Kingdom of Manhattan merged together, it was not only domain merge but reality merge.

Like I said above, the physical merge of domains didn't do anything to disrupt the space-time continuum in Battleworld. Did it affect the rest of the inhabitants of Battleworld? Absolutely not. According to this wiki (YES, THE MARVEL WIKIA), in the Multiverse section, universes are determined due to a major decision on the part of a character. Some can seem to be taking place in the past or future due to differences in how time passes in each universe. Often, new universes and dimensions are born due to time traveling, and another name for these new universes is an "alternate timeline". Battleworld had time-travel too, as was shown in the Infinity Gauntlet (with Thanos using the Time Stone to return to the past, kill his past self and take his place, leaving a trail of alternative Thanoses in his wake) and Siege (with Kang trying to avert their doom) tie-ins, but alternate versions of it weren't created because of Doom, he even made time-travelling a difficult task when he mined the timestream. So yeah, time-space disruptions were possible in Battleworld.

Like I said, Battleworld is not a reality. It is a planet like Earth. Battleworld does not operate like how the Multiverse did. Each separate domains are like countries, forged from the remnants of different Earths across the Multiverse. Like ADour stated, taking people from France and Spain and combining them into Spance. All of these domains are in one reality and that reality is Earth-15133. Just like how all of the planets and stars of our universe is only in one reality, Earth-1218.
