Where are the mods stored on MacOS? 0.15.2+

Post by kakapojoe »

Up until version 0.15.1 I was able to drop mods into the ~/Application Support/factorio/mods/ directory, but after that they seem to be stored and managed in some other way.

I can still manage mods through the in game GUI, but I would like to know where they are on my system. I have tried doing all kinds of spotlight searches based on filename, create date and modification date and the latest versions of the mods seem to be non-existent.

I am not aware of any changes in that regard, but I do not use a mac, the mods folder should be in the location described in the link in my signature.

Thanks for the response! As these things usually go, as soon as I ask the question, I find the answer. And, as usual, problem exists between keyboard and chair.

I must have had a slip of the mouse and copied a large portion of my Library folder outside, so I was looking at the copy while pulling my hair out. It would also appear that spotlight doesn't look inside /Library/
