For me, NS2 is crashing to desktop as soon as a round ends about once every 3 to 5 rounds. The crash happens the instant the round ends, you don't even see the splash screen showing whether you won or lost. I'm pretty confident the problem started with b236, I think crashes were exceedingly rare on b235. I don't think it's related to conceding because I'm pretty sure it also happens on a traditional victory/defeat. Could it somehow be related to servers changing map (auto-mapcycle)?
Obviously any CTD is really annoying. What makes matters worse is that I can't rejoin the server until my old ghost connection clears out (immediately rejoining gives you an authentication error). Since a player's steamID is known to the server, can't it clear the ghost connection if the 'same' steam ID joins? Or would that create a vulnerability?
