    Hi, guys. I'm making a multiplayer game using the NetworkTransport api.

    The game is currently for android devices and sends unreliable packets 20 times every second.
    I have use a model of LAN client/server architeture. When I'm playing with only another player (totalizing two players) the game runs fine. But when a third peer connects, most of the times the server player crashes with the following error:

    F/libc (27722): Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1, fault addr 0x65737341 in tid 28423 (UNET)

    Can anyone help me? Is this a unity bug?

    Seems like the last item in the backtrace, ZN10MemoryPool8AllocateEj, could point to the device running out of memory. Do a lot of allocations happen when adding a new player to the game? Does it happen on more than one device (or on a mac/win/lin standalone player)? If it's a quite consistent crash you could just file a bug report with the project attached and we can try to reproduce it.

    Hi, larus.
    When debugging, I could see nothing special about the memory consumption. When a player is spawned, I instantiate 20 bullets for its character. But the crash when spawning a new player only ocurred sometimes.

    But the problem seemed to have something to do with the packetSize of the ConnectionConfig I was using. I set it to 5120 bytes. By searching about network configurations that could cause this behavior, I discovered, through the Unity 5.6 documentation, that the maximum recommended packetSize is 1470. Strangely, after fixing this, the crash didn't occur anymore. Even after an hour of playing.

    I could only test the game with two mobile devices. The crash was only happenning on my Zenfone GO. The problem seems solved.
