I've just hit a new snag - before the latest update, which added the YOR (FINALLY, HIHIHI!), I've been able to create a massive amount of custom ships, some being the Executor-Class and Imperator-Class Star Destroyers, and others, just for example of size. Any custom ship I now try to launch/finish constucting at a Shipyard that is of Medium Hull Size or more = CRASH TO DESKTOP. I've tried a lot of stuff, every custom ship at Medium or higher causes the game to crash to desktop completely. Also, it makes my RAM spike to over 75% of total use, which may also make the PC force the game to shut down. Admittedly on that point, my PC is 6 years old, and I am amazed it's held up so good this long. But either way, the last game update made the game take more RAM, no matter how little, so it causes a CTD.
Am I the only one that have this problem with creating custom ships, or does others have this too? And is it because your RAM spikes into or THROUGH your room's ceiling, or is the game plainly unable to handle custom ships too large anymore?
For me, prior to the update, I used ships with around 100 pieces or more. Excessive, yes, but it worked flawlessly. Now the game is allergic to it.
Let's hope there is either a fix for this issue soon, or just my PC not liking the game eating the RAM... in which case it will be fixed for me anyway in a month or so with a new rig.
