iMac , osx , vulkan driver , plugins off.

This is a difficult one to be accurate about. It seems to happen when stacking swarms against shields in queen or levi sectors. That said it has killed me 6 times over the last few days .

Most of the time the vulkan driver is stable. However about the third or fourth set of swarms in a stack I get a complete crash to desktop. It doesn't seem to happen with the other drivers, but they now have an annoying flicker.

I appreciate that is a bit of a vague description, but there is something about that set of circumstances causing the crash. I will continue with it, if I can add any more specific info I will.

Rhamus c13 levi , sat 21 40 gmt .

Complete crash when just in levi sector , ship lost. This seems to be Vulkan in a heavily populated sector crash

Reverted to reference gkgl , which has other graphics issues , but no crashes .

Thanks for the report. We'll look into it.

I use OS X but not Vulkan and I’ve seen glitching with swarms too (though never a crash). I’ve noticed when it happens it seems to affect everyone in the sector in some form.

We have a fix for the Vulkan crash for the next client update this week.
