Testers with Exodus/Mac OS

(Crossposted from Creaturetopia.)

I've discovered a possible bug in the Exodus engine in the process of testing the new Flaris breed. To confirm, I'm looking for a couple of people running Creatures Exodus on Mac OS (any flavor will do.)

If you do, could you please test the following?

Make a new undocked world.
Take a Grendel (any normal Grendel, though I'm guessing Banshee would also work) age it to adult and send it up and down in the Meso elevator. The CFE Grendel Egg agent is an easy way to get a normal Grendel into DS.
Try the same with DS & C3 docked. (Adult Grendel in the DS Meso elevator.)
Try this with Aquanorn adults (if you have them).

I'd appreciate any error messages you might get or at least the program's behavior if it crashes.

You don't really need any agents, just a Grendel and a world you don't mind crashing (I suggest you start a new world just to be safe.)

You can export a Grendel from C3 and import it into DS (that works just as well) - then just send it up and down in the Meso elevator, see if you can get the world to crash.

To install Agents into your DS game, find DockingStation in your Applications Folder. Right click it (or hold down the Control key and Left click) choose Show Package Contents.

Then Go through DockingStation > Contents > MacOS > data > My Agents.

Put any agents you want in this My Agents folder. I also suggest you make a shortcut to get to it; grab the My Agents folder and drag it to the Sidebar or make an Alias. Make sure you don't actually move the folder itself though! It has to be inside "data" to work.

Repeated in big letters for emphasis:
DO NOT MOVE THE MY AGENTS FOLDER.

Hope that helps!

ok well it doesn't really matter if I mess up the game because all my stuff is on my PC and I just have the disc where I can install it onto my mac, I'm going to do that now :3
