    My game Pinstripe is experiencing a very frustrating crash that is very, very rare. I'd certainly like to iron this one out though, because it generally happens at certain points in the game.

    Here is my output log for the crash:

    So here is my suspicion: I realized I have an old legacy particle emitter on the scene I usually get the crash at. The crash occurs on load / awake of a scene.

    Additionally, a bug report would be difficult for this one, because it simply is so difficult to reproduce. Could take up to 6 hours to eventually get the crash, and on what system config, I'm not sure.

    Do you think the legacy particle emitter could be the culprit? I know -- I could simply remove the particle emitter and cross my fingers, but I'd love some certainty before launch.

    Thanks so much for your help!

    well i'd try removing that old system first then..

    does it crash while its idle for several hours, or player has to do something and then it happens?

    I honestly don't know. I'll leave it running all night and let you know.
