Could you please give the latest Mac beta version (1.5.4) a try?

will that install onto yosemite? ..also, there appears to be later versions .. also does that mean that java will be on my mac? ..they continuously ask to 'upgrade' ..is this good? notice upgrade is in inverted commas, as usually that means 'will no longer work with'

also asks for arduino to be installed which needs java..then i can only see half of the page of what i'm installing! ..isn't it just better to fix the bug? i probably

thank goodness someone else has! lol! ..that means more are to follow.. need a bug fix guys,..before you get a que ..they will fix it Elecen,..that's what made me buy pandora rather than Sid meirs' new one ..which looks rather similar

..i've got battle academy and all of panzercorps and unity of command, panthers in the fog,..and all the support for the games has been great..and all the games are great too. ..thought i'd excell myself and get a space buildy kinda thang,..and was just about understanding it..frustrating,..and it's not really slitherine's fault..rather it's apple,..but if you wrote to apple you'd get nothing..write to slitherine , and they DO care

someone will be sweating outv a solution as a patch/update as we speah

Are you running version 1.5.4? Mouse pointer shows up fine for me with that version.

Just start Pandora and let it update.
1.5.4 is beta on Mac; but the issue has also been hotfixed on 1.5.3.

It seems to not be fully resolved. Looking into it further.
