Issues fixed
Game Crashing Randomly
- This can occur if your stash and inventory is full or near full.
| Clear out your stash back at base and keep your inventory and stash low if this happens. The crash will occur when a item drops from a enemy or object that is destroyed due to the game exceeding the item limit and not knowing what to do. Keeping these low can help prevent this. |
|---|
Game not Starting after Installation
- On some newer systems, due to a possible error in the Registry during Installation, the game does not launch or simply crashes on launch.
