Does this apply to the new launcher?
If not, I will close this ticket.

looks a bit weird ... but thats the only effect of it ;)

I'm not familiar with the directory structure on MacOS, but for Linux at least, would you consider using ~/.config/StarMade as the cache location in order to avoid cluttering ~ ?

Correct, there was only one link that did this.

Thats right, but this log was to add the "tester information" that both argument sets with and without -steam do not make a difference.
(Inverse logic could have stopped the update if -steam was missing, but that was to show there is no difference)
I tried several combinations and just took the last log to show its all the same

From the longer log, it looks like this could be a graphics driver (or input driver) issue. Are they up to date?

Okay, Steam installs (--steam on a first/clean run) should automatically select the install directory now based on path:
