Hey guys,
I've been playing OpenTTD for years on mac computer.
Tha latest macos update - the mojave - is no longer going to support 32 bit apps.

Will it be possible to somehow run openttd after the update? Maybe there is plan to turn it 64bit?

Thanks!

It already is 64-bit. You can download the source code and compile it yourself. As of right now OpenTTD's compile farm is offline, but when it returns all that will need to be done is to set it up to start compiling the 64-bit version for MacOS.

Self-compiled OpenTTD, no 32 bit warning on High Sierra:
OpenTTD.LordAro(macosx-clang-iconv-fix)$ file bin/openttd
bin/openttd: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

Good to know that in principle the program is 64bit. However, on my list of programs under "system information" it is still listed as 32bit. Hopefully that won't matter...
Sorry, I am a pure user and not a tech expert, so need to be comforted!

if it says it's a 32bit app, it probably is. it depends on how it is compiled, not how it is programmed.
