Thanks! re: the crash - does your mac have an intel GPU? I've noticed on my HD4000 (mac mini) that there's a very specific bug which causes the game to crash when it tries to display tool tips. I've had people test it on other mac hardware without problems, so I think it's a niche Apple aren't going to fix (they're trying to steer everyone towards using their proprietry graphics APIs, and would rather sell you a new mac than fix an old one 🙄) which is unfortunate. Best I can do is isolate tool tips in the next update and, as ridiculous as it sounds, ask people to navigate menus by keyboard (or controller) rather than mouse for now - sorry!😅 To address your other points:
- There's a hard limit on the physical size of the holes in the game engine, so par 5s tend to be a bit too easy because they're too short. However you can edit the hole files by exploring the app bundle and going to Contents/Resources/assets/golf/courses/ where you'll find the course data. The files ending in .hole are simply text files in which you can edit the par. Make sure to back these up before editing though, as it'll cause problems if you try playing a network game and they don't match the other player's version.
- The club limit is a side effect caused by the game trying to guess your club set based on the distance to the pin. This was introduced with the Pitch n Putt to prevent players being able to drive the ball 200m on a 70m hole 🤦♀️. I'll look into adjusting this.
- This is very true. I will endeavour to add it in the next update 😁
Thanks for all the feedback, I really appreciate it. It's what keeps me motivated and the game improving!
