Mission was crashing after completion so did a clean reinstall of BattleTech. Now I cannot get into the mission at all or load the in-mission save I created. When trying to start the combat it crashes in the Preparing Combat screen. No crash file exists in either location.
Have you tried verifying your files?
No

Steps to reproduce the issue

Seen a couple of these recently:

DynamicHeapAllocator out of memory - Could not get memory for large allocation 18446744042452136224!
Could not allocate memory: System out of memory!

Obviously that is an impossible amount of memory, so must be a bug in the game or Unity.

Is this just in one particular campaign or career? Or also in a new test one you might start?

Hmmmmm this is the second time I've had this issue then. I'll start a new career and see how it goes.

Okay. After 260 days in my career I'm getting the same shutdown, still no crash log as well. Just take a mission (flashpoint or regular) to get the crash.
