0.85 Mac version doesn't work #182

I tried loading kOS on my Mac, running KSP 0.22 in sandbox mode. The part shows its id as -1 and doesn't return any output when I type commands.

I'm a professional programmer prepared to do some debugging on my end if necessary.

I don't know about the Mac version, but Linux doesn't do MS-Windows .DLLs either --- still, even the plugins with a .DLL work without problems! After all, we all are running the same Unity framework (native Linux version in my case) in which context the .DLLs are used and run in ...

I don't usually have access to a Mac, so if there is anything you can do to find the source of this, that would be awesome. I know Mac support was working fine way back in 0.3, but I know nothing about how it's fared since then.

I can report that it's working now. I derped while installing it. In my defense, I installed it on an overnight flight and had been awake for 33 hours.

I have since had a lot of fun hacking on things in kOS, so thanks for the mod!
