Hitting "Take All" at the right time causes game to crash
See title. Usually requires you to be jumping and running at the same time but iirc it works sometimes when just running. The timing is hard to hit but it's not fun to crash every ten minutes while doing a dungeon run. I've tested it on two windows 10 computers, both of which experience it. Here's one of many crash logs and a video of the bug: (Aftering uninstalling all mods both through steam and by deleting the mod folder and the universe folder)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvdV9gwA6-Q&feature=youtu.be (skip to around 1:00 to see me actually trigger it successfully. )

It's easier to do on chests that are smaller or aren't wall-bound, or that don't have a ceiling above them. I found it after doing it by accident a bunch of times on wooden crates. I can offer up system specs if needed, or take another video in which i move the inventory out of the spot where you see the player. Thank you for your time.

EDIT: Here's a video I made showing the crash with the inventory out of the way: (Done on another clean universe to make sure that it wasn't because of mod traces.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgRvz6IfHbk&feature=youtu.be

This one only took 10 tries, while the other took 16. Considering that I jump like this almost every time I open a chest, it makes sense that I've been crashing every ten-twenty minutes since this update dropped. Running does not seem to trigger it on its own, though I haven't tested it much.

More device info: (This is the one where I tested in windowed mode, but the bug does happen in fullscreen too. Also it's not visible in the video because of the software, but when the game closes itself there's no error log that appears like when you visit a broken planet.)
It's a windows 10 pro machine running version 1803, OS build 17134.829. It has an Intel core i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40 GHz and has 8 GB of ram.

Here's two other reports of a similar bug:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/211820/discussions/3/353915847944560484/
https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/crash-at-mining-facility-log-included.124483/

Because they are both from 2016, I assume that this was either patched back then and reintroduced, or that it has continued to exists since then but now applies to all areas and not just the mining facility.

Try reading Starbound.log. It should hopefully tell you why the error occurred.

The log is included. I'm not a programmer, but from what I can tell the game gets really mad when it tries to take from a container when the container is out of reach.
