There was a problem hiding this comment.
This line (and the equivalent one for x86_64) is needed because for some reason the exported game tries to look for the gdextension library in the addons/gdhtml folder inside of the Mac app. I don't think this is really the right thing to do, nor do I know enough about how Godot works on Mac to figure out any alternatives, but it works for me right now.

@a-morphous Sorry. Didn't realize I was actually able to commit my suggestions. |

Okay, I think this is about as good as it will get for now, so I'll put it up for review and let you decide whether you want to merge it. I'm still mystified by why we need to add the gdextension library itself as a dependency to get it working, but I won't have time to dig deeper into that for a while yet. |

@a-morphous I'm going to let this one sit for a bit. I can't verify a lot of what you state. Since, as you say, you're not sure if it's the right way to do it. I'll wait a while until we can verify further. Thanks for getting it this far. I should probably test exports on Linux as well. |

So unfortunately, this is a follow up to #18 -- arm64 will work if you build it against the Godot editor's own arm build, but the Mac export template right now expects universal builds. So for this to work on mac in an export we'd need to get x86_64 versions up and running too, or create a universal build.
Unfortunately x2, I can't add universal Ultralight dylibs to Github because they are over Github's 100mb size limit. So here's a somewhat jankier version that keeps the dylibs separate and just throws all of them into the exported binary.
Also, for some reason the exported binary was expecting the gdextension library to still be in an addons folder, hence why the dependencies entry in the .gdextension file looks pretty wonky right now. I have no idea why this is.
Draft PR for now because this truly does feel like a terrible hack. But, once again, may be useful for reference?
