Game suddenly eating Memory in base @ Glacio

[Karniz]

Started happening today, never has happened before.

---

Have a standard base on Glacio and whenever I access the Trading Platform my game will suddenly freeze and eat my PC's memory.

Task Manager shows 97% memory usage with Astroneer alone.
Reset my computer and validated game files - still happening.

I was on Atrox prior doing the EXO Event stuff with no problems.

Gonna try turning off clouds to see if it helps. Will update later.

---

Update: Lowered settings to see if it would help and still running into this issue.

this happens to me, too.
i thought EXO-PF and too many items causing the problem, but it happens even in Gateway Portal.

Having the same issue when I'm leaving Glacio then try to land on Sylva. Only started happening after 1.26 patch was added.

Yeah been testing multiple things like turning my graphics really low and flying to the other planets and the issue persists.
Another user posted today as well so this is not an isolated incident.
Hopefully the devs read this forum!

Also this happened after I found the Curious Item and activated it.
Not sure if the FX in the sky is the culprit.

yea I played for awhile 2 hours ish and all was good then all of a sudden memory usage was like a bomb going off then it froze the game and all 16gb of ram being used, if I reload the last save it happens after 1 min hovers around 2-3 GB being used then right to 16gb then freeze.

Hello, I have the same problem

[Achilleon]

I had a horrible stuttering problem with the previous patch and now I'm getting hard crashes. Where is the QA department for this game? The last couple of patches have crippled the game for me.

[Karniz]

There was a solution/possible reason for the crashing that started in 1.26 in another thread that I had tried and it worked - don't research items! [for the time being~]
As soon as I took the items out of the research chamber my crashing completely stopped.

As for your [Achilleon] crashing/stuttering issues via patches that may be a graphics/settings thing on your end? My game has run smooth as butter from the start; so keep in mind that they [the QA team] may not be experiencing what you are and that's why they haven't fixed it.
Tweak settings and validate the Game Cache to ensure all your files are up to date.

Also I did submit an email via their Support site and got a response promptly, so anyone experiencing constant crashes that isn't tied to the recent 1.26 issue may want to try recording their specific problem and send it thru the Support Site so they can evaluate it!

might be laughable (yes)

I just posted the same bug while landing on atrox (from silva), noticed that i had a RTG on the oxygenator spot, since i put it back in place, no problem ... maybe look i something is at an unattended place for the game?

I cleaned my base a bit too, but i don't think it does anything.

i was playing the game collecting galastropods, and it just suddenly froze and crashed (i did not have opened task manager)
