macOS build instructions need updating for full client build #1608

Open dgelessus opened 4 months ago

dgelessus commented 4 months ago

The "Building on macOS & Linux" instructions currently say:

Linux and macOS are not officially supported targets, and the game client does not compile. However, several of the tools can be built and run.

This should be updated to mention that macOS has a full client now.

While trying to guide someone through the macOS build process, I also noticed some other things that aren't mentioned in the instructions, and a few small errors:

According to various places in the CMake build scripts, macOS 10.14 seems to be the minimum for building the client.

10.14 is indeed the minimum version for running the client. (Note: building/running.)

I'm not sure what the minimum Xcode to build would be. I'd always encourage the latest - but we might go back to Xcode 11.
