When I try to start cataclysm on mac, it tells me I my window needs to be 80x24 and to stretch out the window, but I can’t drag the corner of it.

Guys, how do I cataclysm?

Mac works the same as linux where the default terminal size determines window size. Open up the terminal preferences and change the default window size.

Is the game using terminal or do you have some other terminal application set as your default?
