It appears to run fine in the IDE and I don’t believe it requires any inclusions beyond “Internet" and “Cursors" but when I try to "Save As Standalone Application…" it gets just far enough to create the enclosing folder and then LC quits. I have tried building from various versions of LC and from both Mac (Intel and M2) and Windows. Always the same result.  I am not sure how to debug this particular situation. I am suspicious that there is a bit of legacy LiveCode scripting language that was once allowed / overlooked  but now isn’t.  (I have been unsuccessful when attempting to step through the rev IDE stack scripts)  Suggestions?
