    Press play..... "Memory Stream is Corrupted" error..... unity crash.... cant open project anymore.

    Im backing up but I still loose hours of work every time this happens.

    Is there a fix or is this just how my life is now?

    Thanks J

    This is the delightful error message..

    "The file 'MemoryStream' is corrupted! Remove it and launch unity again!
    [Position out of bounds!]"

    .. any idea how to remove it?

    So this happens roughly once a day and takes 30 mins to re-import all assets.

    Fun!

    This happens when I update an asset(a) through version control at the same time that I have pressed play on the editor. If a recompile occurs during game load, there is a reasonable chance Memory Stream will get corrupted.
