Mini Dump crashes

Lately, in mp games I've been getting a number of mini dump/crash to the desktop.  Soooo frustrating.

Apparently this is happening to others in the same game as well.  Is this a known issue that is being addressed?

Should I send my mini dump files somewhere?

Is there anything that can be done?  Because this is ruining such an excellent and fun game...

Yeah, minidumps spoil the fun for sure. In average I'd say it happens every 5-10h play-time, so about every 5th game is ruined.

I've just started getting one too in a bigger sized game.. Strangely enough its just loading the game from my own saved file.. but i can load from the auto saved fine. I just lose 15 min of gameplay.

I got a coule of these today.  I hadnt rebooted in a few days, so I was wondering if that might make a difference.  After the reboot, I'm 1-0 without mini dumps.

I think we should all keep track of how often we get these, and if/when we reboot, how many games after the reboot is the first mini dump.  Perhaps the data will help IC?

comon, there's gotta be a place to send these log reports.

I've gotten 2 out of the last 4 games....so frustrating!

Where do we sent them?  I'm willing to take the time to do it, I just dont know where they go.

Thanks

Hi all:

When a minidump does occur to me, I notice that one of the following is true:

* right after a planet upgrade/downgrade

* upon reception of a private msg.

This suggests that the problem maybe a de-syn between the many players in the game?
