I guess it might be possible to put the database files in /Library/ Application Support/Rising Software as well?

Yes, and that would be preferable to modifying files inside the application bundle.


I'd also urge you to consider making the file in /Library/ Application Support/Rising Software read-only, and copying it to ~/ Library/Application Support/Rising Software, where you can modify it in the user's home dir, but this is a matter of preference as long as the software can run with the /Library/Application Support/ Rising Software file missing or damaged by the user.

The file in /Library/Application Support/Rising Software needs to be shared amongst all users - it's a shared database of settings, scores etc.

Then making it available to all users at /Library/Application Support/ Rising Software seems like a good strategy.
