[1.191.108] SE Log File Blows Up (+20GB) On Extended Idle
Summary: Recently the C:/users/name/appdata/roaming/SpaceEngineers/SpaceEngineers.log file ends up exponentially increasing in size when SE is left running for extended time, presumably until it fills the drive.
I have a bad habit of leaving SE running after falling asleep while working on something. The last few times I have (which I can't be certain about which hotfix or the just the recent minor update), I've come back to my game frozen up at pause menu (not surprising, pretty common, user risk) but with a Windows warning about low disk space on C: drive. After using Task manager to close SE, and since the game is installed on my D: drive, I decided to check the C:/user/name/appdata folder and found that the SE log file was nearly 25 GB. I don't have an editor that can open a text file that big so I can't say what it's doing in it. I also can't exactly upload it either.
I'm aware leaving the game running for extended time idling (6+ hrs) comes with risks of freezing, but this is new and kinda alarming. It certainly freaked me out, knowing I should have at least 20 GB's spare on the C: drive lol. But I found it.
Attached is a screen capture of the C:/user/name/appdata/roaming/SpaceEngineers folder with the file there and selected. Not sure how else to help with this. Please advise.
