Someone online was asking how to get this running on a Mac. Here is a simple script, save it as run_taxinaut.sh in your Taxinaut directory, then run "sh run_taxinaut.sh".

#!/bin/sh

# Taxinaut is a wonderful game, but it doesn't officially support mac.

# Run this script to launch Taxinaut properly on macOS.

# Always run from the directory where this script lives

cd "$(dirname "$0")"

TOKEN_FILE=".taxinaut_mac_approved"

# If token file does not exist, remove quarantine attributes

if [ ! -f "$TOKEN_FILE" ]; then

    echo "First-time setup: approving Taxinaut for macOS..."

    # Remove quarantine flag recursively from this directory

    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine . 2>/dev/null

    # Create token file so we don't repeat this

    touch "$TOKEN_FILE"

    echo "Approval complete."

fi

# Launch Taxinaut

java -Xmx2000M -Xms2000M -XX:+UseParallelGC \

  -cp "taxinaut.jar:lib/*:mod/mod/*" \

  net.mosgrom.taxi.Taxi "$@"
