Pretty much what title says, I have an ironman account that I enjoy playing but want to play a second normal account to eventually make enough money for donor status. Does anyone have any experience playing on mac that would potentially know how to open up a second Pkhonor tab? Thank you!

Not a Mac user, but try running it with command line. You might need to read into how to do that. Also no clue if it works

Right click the .JAR and say Duplicate and then open the new one as well.
Or you can do like Raj mentioned and open it in terminal using "java -jar PkHonor.jar"

1. Open Terminal
2. run command: sudo spctl --master-disable
3. run the: Play_PkHonor_MacOS executable
Enjoy

Seems quite unneeded to disable the whole gatekeeper thing unless MacOS flags pkh as potentially being malware, assuming java -jar pkhonor.jar works just fine too. As far as I know it's pretty much like turning off Windows Defender and all the other crap on Windows.

I just want a definitive solution so i can make a guide. Every few months we get this question and it's like we forget the solution every tme.

Duplicate the .jar file so you have Pkhonor.jar and Pkhonor copy.jar, you can then open them both simultaneously.

Yes this works, i have done this on both macs i own. With the new client I could simply not run it approving the java application via system settings -> security and privacy -> trusting the java application. Everytime i trusted it, it went back into the loop and made me trust it again. Hence why i used the gatekeeper. after running run command: sudo spctl --master-enable it kept on working.
