After I switch to another process and wait a few minutes, Starmade becomes unresponsive, and I am unable to do anything with it but force quit. I've found that it takes 2-3 minutes for it to becomes unresponsive, switching back before that window has not caused the issue.
I've attached the last changed log file, hopefully that will
Enter game mode, spawn, command+tab to another process, wait 2-3 minutes, tab back to find process unresponsive.

First occurence is set to the main menu, does that mean that before that version, it was fine?
I don't see anything special in those logs but it might be a memory issue.
When alt tabbed, it doesn't clean up memory as often/thorough. I'm not sure if that's also the case for windowed mode.
Try minimizing starmade when using fullscreen mode and windowed mode (with borders). See if either option has the same result. Also try assigning more memory to Starmade and see if it lasts longer when minimized.
I never once experienced this issue before that patch, but I can't 100% guarantee that is where it started. I wasn't playing as much around that time. So perhaps I shouldn't have said that.
My current memory settings are:
Max: 4096 MB
Initial: 1024 MB
Early: 128 MB
I am playing in windowed mode, and I tried windowed mode without borders as well, it was no better. I cannot command+tab while in full screen mode at all, so I can't test that.
I just doubled all of the memory values above, and I didn't notice any difference in time required for the issue to manifest.
Is there any additional log or file I could provide to give more clues?
EDIT:
I have also tried deleting the game content through steam, and reinstalling, there was no change. Though I read another issue on here that said that doesn't actually clear out most of the files, so maybe I should try a full manual wipe.
Here are my computer specs:
OSX 10.10.5
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Video card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB
Memory does not appear to be the problem. CPU usage is an unreal 200 - 250%. I also found that the game keeps going just fine while in the background. I had it displaying on half my screen, while I tabbed to a program on the other half. The game never visibly stuttered or anything, but I couldn't tab back, it was unresponsive, yet still playing.
This is from my activity monitor, the first number following the process name is the "% CPU"
This is from the memory tab, the first number after the process name is the memory usage, second is the compressed memory.
EDIT:
Actually, after further investigation it appears CPU usage is consistently that high, even when not in the background. So I'm not certain if that information is any use. This is a screenshot taken while still focused on the game:
Your CPU has 4 core. 400% should be your max cpu usage. 250% or so would be a reasonable number for a game that's never minimized (it's windowed).
Doesn't seem like a CPU or memory issue then, can you share another log file after crashing this way? Maybe there's something new in it.
That's a good point on the CPU usage, I didn't think about it when I wrote that, thanks.
It never actually crashes, though. The application just becomes unresponsive. It appears to keep running. If I move windows to the side, I can see it still doing stuff, I just can't switch back to it. It never moves back to focus, so I always have to force quit.
Please try a fixed framerate.
the unlimited framerate may result in the game going out of sync to some extend. (Or build up a queue it cannot process fast enough)
Try 30FPS, and see if the result changes.
hm, thats odd.
Is there any other indicator you have what may cause this?
The log shows the game is running like normal, no high load, or alike that would point to a source.
Does it normalize again after like 30 seconds? or does it stay that way for an infinite time?
I don't know about 'infinite', but I waited a couple minutes with it selected, and the program never came back into focus.
EDIT:
As for other indicators, that is all I have at the moment. I'm going to try playing with various settings and digging around some more, see if I can find some more clues - but this one has me completely baffled. I usually fix my own issues, but this one is pretty hard to nail down.
EDIT 2:
I am running this through steam on the mac, with steam overlays disabled -- not that it seems to matter, I think the overlay dies after the launcher closes.
Just a few minutes in, completely unresponsive:
but if I hide all other windows, I can still see the game working in the background, I just can't interact with it:
One thought is that I am on a laptop with a high-DPI display. I don't see how that would matter, and it was never a problem before, but might be worth mentioning. As a developer I know something it's that random bit of information that causes the "Oh yeah!" moment. I'll try to keep thinking of anything else that comes to mind. Please let me know if there is anything else I can test.
EDIT 3:
AH! Hey! I just noticed. Even though I have FPS capped at 30, in the bottom left corner it says FPS is 60. Could it be ignoring the cap? If so maybe the FPS cap is still the issue?
Oh, do you have vsync enabled?
(This would prevent the game from lowering the FPS and would force it to monitor refresh rate.)
Please make sure it is disabled.
please upload your current settings.cfg and a logfile created with these settings.
maybe someone else with a similar Mac setup can take a look at it then.
I've just tried totally deleting my game folder and all related data, then reinstalling everything, the issue still persists. Files are attached, I hope someone else has some idea
I haven't seen this issue since the launcher update, and it seems like no one else has this issue, so this ticket can be closed.
