Description

I was facing an issue with the .lua script, where I kept getting back-end errors when ran. When StackRabbit starts, it automatically starts the game. However, instead of starting on level 18 or 19, it starts the game on level 10. When I entered StackRabbits request in browser, the text presented stated:
"Currently only 18, 19, and 29 starts are supported by StackRabbit. Requested: 10"

The workaround I found was to start on level 18 or 19 manually, before starting the script.
This probably would confuse newcomers such as I.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the automatic game start through the .lua script and inspect the request shown in the browser when it starts at level 10. Trace where the starting level is selected and verify the fix by confirming StackRabbit starts on a supported level, such as 18 or 19, without the workaround.
