[macOS] Allow dark window titlebar when system dark mode is enabled

Post by MarvinCZ »

macOS has now for some time support for apps to natively switch between light and dark appearance based on system's setting.
It would be really cool if Factorio also supported this so window titlebar could be dark when dark mode is enabled.

I like to play Factorio in windowed mode and this light titlebar can be sometimes distracting on my otherwise dark screen. 🙂

So please devs consider this change as this would be perfect quality of life improvement.

Here is preview of how it would look, and in my opinion it would be absolutely hilarious:

I just found out that it can be forced on per-app basis by this command (run in terminal):

Code: Select all

defaults write com.factorio NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance 0
(don't forget to restart game after this change)

But app's native support would be of course better.
