Game still crashing when placing blocks in a plane/grid

Diggrok shared this bug 26 hours ago
Solved

I reported this issue a while ago but never received a solution. I've noticed other users also reporting this problem.

When I hold shift to place blocks in a grid (like a 10x10) the game crashes every time. I can easily reproduce this issue on demand.

Crash report attached of the most recent bug. Opening this as a new topic since some previous patches claim to fix this and a new bug report from the latest version might provide some insight.

System specs:

  • 5070 Ti
  • 64gb Ram
  • 2tb SSD
  • Intel i7-14700K

Same thing is happening to me since the beginning of this game and still no fix. I also have a brand new setup which is pretty powerful and this happens 100% of the time I place planes.

Hello Diggrok,


According to the logs you've provided, the issue lays in your GPU, namely it became unresponsive and the graphics driver reset the device - a process often called TDR (Timeout Detection and Recovery) which results in the Game crashing.

What I would suggest is:

  • Update your GPU driver: Official GeForce Drivers | NVIDIA - the newest driver for NVIDIA GPUs is 580.88
    a059c259aefe539315b555b981955e69
  • Open Task Manager while playing and check if there are any apps running in the background that are GPU heavy
  • Check if your GPU isn't overheating - you can check the GPU temperature in Task Manager in Performance tab

Let me know if this helps.


Kind Regards,

Ha! Brilliant. Updating the GPU driver seemed to fix it. I just made 20 HUGE planes with no issues.

I can't believe this whole time that's all it's been, I knew it had to be a local issue. Literally ever since I got my PC for this game I've been building planes one row at a time and all my buddies thought I was making it up 😅

Thanks for the quick help! I figured you're a little less inundated with bug reports than you were 4 months ago.
