occassional crashes

Post by Vice »

Not many, those who do are generally out of memory on their systems. What happens when you enter a station is a loading sequence of the hangar object and its texture data. If you're system has insufficient memory to load that data, it risks closing the game. Fixes include:

- Change the Planet Detail setting to 'Low', 'Medium', or 'High'.
- Close background tasks/program running in the background that are using up your system's memory until the needed 1.5 GB of free physical memory is available (check in Start > Run/Search > type MSINFO32 press enter > System Summary > Available Physical Memory).
