macOS build does NOT have run permissions on download from Gamebananna, so it can't open without using chmod. #339

Description

@alo3599homebrew

When you download a new build of the macOS version of the game it does not have run permissions making it impossible to open

without chmod setting correct permissions (755)

This bug is still included in the latest version and seems to be an issue with the executable creater never setting permissions. This bug MAY be present on the Linux build as well, however I have not tested it there yet (as of Feb 23).

Also the issue extends to PsychEngine, but it's unsupported anyways
Video of issue and how to fixhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1XuhYCSUMuEO8TK3vWahaFLrrSgVM_QoQ/view?usp=sharing

Steps to reproduce this bug.

  1. Download macOS build ON A MAC OR MACOS VM
  2. Try to open application (it WILL crash)

Command Prompt/Terminal logs

App does not open.
IDK if i can put it here, but the finder error says: The application “PsychOnline” can’t be opened.

Have you modified the Source Code?

No.
