Mindustry: Fails to launch on Mac 10.13
Getting the following errors w/ both 3.4 stable and a build off of master:

This issue is caused by libgdx and LightWeight Java Graphics Library (LWJGL)
NOT Mindustry

As the message says, you need to run it with the JVM argument -XstartOnFirstThread.

They started it with that argument, but still got an error.

Looks like I missed that part. As @TheChosenEvilOne said, this seems to be an error with GLFW or LWJGL. Regardless of the cause, I doubt I'll be able to fix anything with an error message that incomprehensible, unless someone else has had the exact same problem.

Should be able to add "XstartOnFirstThread" to "vmargs" in packr.
(note the - is not needed when set in "vmargs")
Without -XstartOnFirstThread I get this on my Mac:

With -XstartOnFirstThread it works:

XstartOnFirstThread has always been in the VM args for packr, although with an extra '-' at the start.
However, I've heard that people have been able to run those versions on Mac anyway, so I don't think the extra hyphen has every been an issue, at least for some people (?).

Some extra info: I downgraded the JDK version on my mac from 8u171 to 8u60 and it runs fine now just double-clicking the app.
That's strange though because the app should be using the JRE inside the package so the installed version on the Mac shouldn't matter.
jeremyrixon

What if you uninstall the JDK and JRE altogether?
Anuken
on 22 Apr 2018
Yep - works without a JDK or JRE installed.
jeremyrixon
on 22 Apr 2018
So I just installed 8u172 and it works fine now. I don't know what to make of that!
jeremyrixon
on 22 Apr 2018
Perhaps it automatically uses the installed JDK if it finds one, and falls back on the bundled one?
Anuken
on 22 Apr 2018
I don't know. I can't reproduce the problem at all now that I've reinstalled Java on my Mac.

I've gotten a Mac now, and the newest version has been confirmed working on version 10.13 even without a JDK installed. The JVM argument issue has been fixed as well.
