Sorry but this is out of scope.

I mean such setting options to use the mirror server directly in osu! direct... Instead of opening the browser and using methods such as script injection to add buttons to download beatmaps from a mirror server. Hmmm... My English is poor, by example, I can set a https://txy1.sayobot.cn/beatmaps/download/full/{sid} in settings, and osu!lazer will download beatmaps via sayobot.

This has been requested several times before and was also deemed out of scope. Further discussion is not necessary.

Please fill out the issue template next time too, by the way. It's not there just so you can remove it entirely.

To add to the reasoning for this: we cannot guarantee the reliability of third party providers without a good API surrounding it. For the game client, where it is critical that the beatmap being downloaded is the correct (and up-to-date) version, I'd rather not take on the overhead of support issues we will deal with by adding this kind of functionality.

We do accept mirror applications using the official API though. So you may want to contact the mirror provider and see if they are willing to offer the mirror as an official one, rather than a third party service.
