Discussion Crash after docking ship

[MackSwiggler]

So this always happens to me after plundering a few ships. After docking this message appears. Any way to fix this?

It happens with most people, and its an ongoing issue. I've found that not being in crews and turning off all game audio reduces the amount of crashes.

Oh thanks!

It's a general memory leak issue. The client continually works its way towards crashing, and if it's nearly there when you try to dock, you're going to lose the cargo. Game sounds, large cannon crews and multiple ship battles all accelerate the process, but you're inevitably going to crash once on any voyage collecting upgrade materials.

The most reliable solution is a small crew with Discord or Teamspeak. The ship will stay active provided one player is still on board, and you can wait for everyone whose client is looking shaky to relog before porting. Public and guild ships with large crews are loot fail Russian roulette.

I figured that out reading some of the forum posts.

I made this to help me lose less stuff.
