Q?I BOUGHT MY COPY FROM THE MAC APP STORE AND CAN’T PLAY ONLINE, WHAT DO I DO?

We are aware of the issue some Mac users have experienced in getting Cargo Commander to play online. This has been fixed and version 1.1.0 has been uploaded to the Mac App Store. If it has not appeared yet for you it may take up to 24 hours for it to appear.

Q?I WANT TO PLAY CARGO COMMANDER ON MY MAC ON STEAM! BUT IT DOES NOT START!

“Steam is working hard to resolve the issue with its “big screen” beta and should post a fix soon! In the meantime you can work around the problem by bypassing steam and opening the application in its folder which can be found here:

~~/Users/”your mac username”/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/cargo commander/CargoCommander.app”~~

Q?I HAVE A MAC AND MY SCREEN IS ALL GREEN AND PURPLE! IS THIS EXPERIMENTAL ART?

Unfortunately not. Certain mac versions apparently like to do this. If you go to the Options menu you will find a gamma slider, if you wiggle it the screen should turn normal again. But if you like this funky way of playing the game go right ahead!
