im using Mac, and my friend, playing on Windows, i have been experiencing difficulties with Stardew crashing unpredictably during our multiplayer sessions. I haven't encountered any problems on my computer, but we're unsure of the specific cause behind the crashes.

please help!

I get the same error message almost everyday. We have to pause the game using /pause, then wait for me to reconnect. Its especially annoying while deep in skull cavern ...

Any solutions ?
