Ive placed my rocket defence and activated it and all my save files of that map are in the time before ending, ive tried destroying the rocket defense but the end seems inevitable, any ways to go back to my free world??

Hi. The only way to cancel the countdown at the moment is by editing the save file.

Go to wherever you installed Factorio and open the folder that says 'saves'.

I'm not sure on Mac, but in the \saves\ folder should have a bunch of ZIP files in them.

Find the zip file that has your world name on it, and extract to anywhere.

I don't know where to go from here, I haven't tried editing saves.

Cant even find the /saves/ folder? ive got the config and data folders and the others dont seem useful

You have to un-hide the folder before you can find it.
You can do this with the terminal, which accesses the raw UNIX interface behind OSX. If you don't know how to get the terminal open, search for "terminal" in spotlight.
TO un-hide hidden folders, enter this into the terminal:
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
Usually, to now see the hidden files, you need to restart your computer, but you can bypass that by entering this into the terminal:
killall Finder
Now for the file location:
~/Library/Application Support/Factorio/saves

You might be able to access that location without showing the hidden files.

And before anyone asks, no, I don't use a mac, my google-fu is just strong.
