OS Version: Windows 8.1 Pro, 64bit
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 760
Graphics Driver Version: 347.52

Game version: 1.2.0 & 1.2.1 on steam.
Game mode: Single Player
Bug Location: When loading an existing game.
Steps to Reproduce: Start Void Expanse, exit void expanse, restart the game and then load an existing single player game
Reproduction Rate: 20% ? maybe, I've had it happen a few times in both 1.2.0 and 1.2.1 but it's not a regular occurence anymore.
Bug Description: When Loading an existing game the game will stop working bringing up a windows dialog saying "VoidExpanse.exe is not responding" with the description "A problem caused this program to stop interacting with windows" This is the same as the major problem i had in 1.1.18 except that it has now improved and is not a regular thing, I've found that when it happens I can exit steam, restart steam and then the next game I load in void expanse will load fine without any problems.

logs: below is a dropbox link to a zip file with 1.2.1 logs. logs number 21 & 22 were definitely a crash, however out of the other logs, I only had one more crash and i'm not sure which one it was. if it happens again I'll be sure to copy the logs as soon as it does.

P.S. Just want to say you've done a great job improving stabiility in the last couple of days, so thankyou. I'm enjoying the game alot.

Hello!
Thanks for the logs. Yes, the work on the issue is still in progress, it seems we need to get a 6+ cores CPU to debug it.

Hello!
We just released v1.2.3 addressing the multithreading issues.
Could you try it please? More details in the Steam discussion (http://steamcommunity.com/app/324260/discussions/0/611702631239079455/).
Regards!

Hi,

I've installed the 1.2.3 experimental version and I've since loaded the game 3 times without any problems so far, it loaded 2 different single player saves and I logged on to a multiplayer server without the need for me to restart steam or VE at all, so far it looks like it's working.

Thanks!
