# URL (client script)

Source: https://ref.dm-lang.org/client/var/script/URL/

### Format
> `#define URL "byond://byond.com:6000"`

Defining a URL in a script, specifies the world to connect to when the script is executed by the player. This is referred to as a connection script, because the player uses it to connect to a world. Other post-connection scripts such as `byond.dms` or a script loaded through `client.script` are only used to configure the client after it has connected to a world. In those cases, the URL setting has no effect.

It is important to enclose the URL in double quotes. Otherwise, the `//` symbol would be mistaken for a comment.
