Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/SillyTavern/SillyTavern-Launcher/issues/77

Environment

🪟 Windows

System

Any Windows

Describe the problem

The startup scripts in the main repo set the NODE_ENV to production.
github.com/SillyTavern/SillyTavern@5a4e23f62f/Start.bat (L3)

This doesn't happen when using the launcher.

Additional info

Why is it bad?

The server will report as running in an undefined environment upon startup.
Some libraries may not include additional optimizations that are only activated in production.

How to fix?

Add set NODE_ENV=production at the very start of the launcher.bat or in the server startup string.

Please tick the boxes
