hellure: Roomate had crashes at this point. I played around with their freighter and the control room, restarted a couple times, worked after that. Not 'exactly sure' what's causing it personally, but the Devs know about the issue, and you're not alone. I believe steam has an experimental update already that address it.
I read online about some repeating code in the save files related to this corrupting save files, but I opened mine and my roomates saves in NMSSE, and there was no repeating code.
I also read that the system was throwing up a null error response because something wasn't right, and it didn't know what to do.
Not too worried about it personally, since the Devs know, I'm sure it's a priority. From what I've read: Crashes and Save Corruptions go to the front of the line.
Thanks. It seems, though, that the stability has gotten worse. I now crash when I try to warp to a different star system in my starship. I also crash if I try to pick an expedition suggested by teh Navigator. I can't look at the fleet I've assembled because when I do, the game locks up.
Also, sometimes when I'm on board my freighter as go to leave in my starship, the starship will rise too high and get get caught in the superstructure of teh freighter. Try as I might to get out, the starship just keeps banging off stuff. It contiues until I abort the game. This past time It continued to happen every time I restarted the game, even after rebooting and forcing a sync to the GOG game. Something is terribly wrong, and its pretty frustrating.
