cathook Bots crash the OS when they crash

Bots crash the OS when they crash

System Information

OS: Linux DE: CathookOS Cathook Version: Latest

Config used

Any.

Logs / Crash Report

None sadly.

Description

Anytime a bot crashes for no or some reason, it slaughters my entire OS to the point where my tf2 crashes and the OS freezes for 10 minutes without being able to even move the cursor, and I have to restart the PC everytime, which makes it totally unplayable when hosting bots (when it actually was back then, some sorta update messed it up probably).

Steps to reproduce

☑ I am able to consistently reproduce this error

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Start bots.
Roll with your bots for a bit.
Continue playing until you begin to freeze and lag horribly with 1 fps.
Alt+tab into your IPC while you still can and notice 1+ bots restarted
Witness your OS being decapitated (cursor freezing for 10 minutes straight)
Run out of patience and restart PC.

Additional context

Bot restarts/crashes have always caused major lag, but freezing an entire OS and making the cursor unmovable is something totally new, back then I could at least still continue playing with a few lag spikes while bots were restarting in the background. Note: I have disabled core dumps I think, although I might've only disabled their storage rather than generation, but regardless, it didn't really help.

Screenshot of cheats enabled

I do not have any cheats, but I have actually modified the code regarding bot restarts, and made it so that only one bot can be in a STARTING state at a time, maybe that's causing the issue?

check how much cpu and ram is being used. tf2 has a hard time opening when theres many bots already on a server. Which causes it to crash other bots if thers too much of your pc being used.
