Additional Information​

I keep getting random crashes to desktop. It happens most of the time after zooming out and rotating the camera but has also happened plenty of times zoomed in. I tried it without mods enabled and on different saves but the issue persists.

Often after the first CTD, the CTDS occurs more frequently. Verifying the integrity of the game files in steam seems to alleviate this issue.

What didn't solve the issue:
Uninstalled the game, deleted the cities skylines file in appdata and the regedit keys of cities skylines.
Adding the command in steam -force-d3d9
Turning frame limiter on to 90fps
Disabeling Vsync
Verifying the integrity of the game files
Please suggest follow up steps on how to troubleshoot and fix the issue.
Thank you in advance.

there are electrical issues on this block that are causing your crash. Pause the game, delete this whole block, including the roads and windmills, flatten the area to be less hilly and re-do

Hi, Thanks!
Sorry for the late reply, it seems to have solved it for that city. I went away from CS2 to play KC2 for a while but now that I am back and creating a new city I got a random CTD again. Could you please check what is the cause?

How were you able to pinpoint the cause of the crash? I would love to be able to do the same for my CTDS! I'm having the same issue as OP. Game will crash after a few hours of playtime. and then is prone to more crashes on that save. Despite using the -diag-job-temp-memory-leak-validation cmd launch command, I still cannot find anything in the logs that point to WHY the game randomly crashes.
