I've got a BYONDexe question. Been scratching my head at it for a bit.

I've got a button on the BYONDexe page that you can click on to launch the game in single-player mode.

How would I format the url to auto-install the game if not installed, and launch from the installed local copy instantly with a set port for hosting?

All of my tests seem to just redirect BYONDexe-only (no pager) users to the game's hub.

Ter13	Figured it out, more or less. Had some settings configured wrong, and was trying to use pager protocol instead of BYOND protocol. Proper link for a single-player start is byond://key.game##local
