Console log and more details posted at https://github.com/beyond-all-reason/BYAR-Chobby/issues/365 which I've since been told isn't the appropriate place to post such an issue.
I've played a couple of games since and haven't encountered the issue again, so I don't have a reproducible way to trigger this CTD just yet

This is Lua OOM, which is allocated by game and has "only" 1.5GB (or 3GB, i'm not sure).
An infolog is required to determine conditions that could lead to such situation

and post created link here.
Or you should be able to find proper log in /home/<user>/Documents/Beyond All Reason/log/
Also replay may speed-up bug detection. (added too many lua AIs? used non-standard widgets or maps? etc.)

Was my first time playing, completely vanilla with a provided map (9 metal isles), only 3 AIs
Where it says Fatal: [spring_lua_alloc_log_error][handle=LuaRules][OOM] synced=1 {alloced,maximum}={1610612786,1610612736}bytes; where does that ~1.6GB maximum come from?

Hardcoded engine safety net.
if you hit it, it's most likely our fault

I also have sometimes this OOM error on Linux (16Gbyte+8 Gbyte Swapfile today), but only when i try to play older replays when the game duplicate itself because it needs a seperate older launcher to play the outdated replay version. Htop showned me, that this game not really care about my Swapfile and extended swap from 4 to 8GB still let it crash in this cases.
@finite robin i hope you know the reisub trick, to free your Ram and stop the system from freezing into death. Atleast i know how to activate it under Manjaro Linux.

No system lockup, BAR just CTD and the rest of my system was totally fine - no need for sysrq keys 😛
@junior cargo heh well if I hit that literally the first time I tried BAR and you say it's BAR devs' fault, perhaps it needs a little more attention 😛

There isn't much crap in the game that creates a ton of garbage so my first bet would be SimpleAI
warm robin
imho it was good old SimpleAI + metalmap setup
finite robin
Hmm so SimpleAI is memory-inefficient or leaks? Guess I'll just use the other one
