Why buying from Steam?
Buy direct from the developer site, by that you support the developers (cutting out the pimp) and you run always the latest version without the hassle with the limiting and shaking Steam loader software mandatory to access your game. For Mac user (like me) Steam may be a giant within the PC gamers community but for Mac users a pain in the circuit.
Besides - buying directly gives you a non DRM access game - so I don't see any added value getting far less with a lot of trouble for the same price.
Talk to the developers if they are willing to find a solution letting you in to the real stuff cutting out the middle man.
By the way, Facorio runs on my vintage MacBook 2008 like a breeze

What is your mac's configuration (hardware, OS version, ...). Especially how much VRAM do you have ?
Can you also post your logfile please (if one is generated) ?

Set launch options in Factorio properties in Steam to

Code: Select all

--max-texture-size=4096
that should help.
