Garbage Collection
I wanted to bring this issue to people's attention becuase it could be an pontential issue if you're running Nuclear Dawn on an SSD. (solid state drive) You would know if you had one, most people do not unless it's custom. Altho others may be low on disk space aswell.

Each time the game crashes, it usually leaves an 90mb dump file in your game directory. Over the course of an year, this can equate to few gbs. Due to limited space restrictions, this can be an potential issue for some users.

The solution is to go to your game folder and etheir compress them (they compress nicely to less than 10% of the size) or simply delete them. The purpose of crash dumps is provide game developers insight into game issues. (which is why compressing is likely better)

On Windows operating systems, the folder containing these is located
here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Nuclear Dawn
or here C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Nuclear Dawn

Mac you'll have the find the steam folder in application library/support or something. Linux the folder is located in your user as an hidden. (if I recall right)
