Had this happen today and it’s the reason I looked up this forum. After defense setup the game ran smoothly as usual but when the enemies came near, my first shot crashed the game. This happened 4 times as I was troubleshooting with different things. The fix for me was to uninstall and reinstall my nVidia drivers although I shouldn’t need to do that. Finally got past the mission and haven’t had the issue since.

+1 : it was crashing on me, started a new world (with same toon) and crashes on new save too.
This happened to me today 6 times while on “The Ringfort” mission, before and after setting up defenses in the ringfort. 3 in the nearby fields while gathering supplies, 3 inside the Ringfort after building defenses and battling the first wave. The last 3 crashes corrupted the save and forced me to revert to an older one.
Description: Game crashes while inside the Ringfort while battling enemies or while battling enemies near the Ringfort (adjacent fields).
Aggro’d enemies and battling seem to play a role. Explosions also seem to be a trigger as the crashes would occur at the moment of any explosion. Crashes are very repetitive, I eventually gave up and left the area where cashes stopped.
Steps to reproduce: Take on the Ringfort mission. Then battle enemies inside the ringfort or in the nearby fields before or after setting up the defenses. Explosions and other heavy animations should trigger a crash.

We plan on playing tomorrow and attempting this mission again. I will update with any information that seems relevant and helps us figure this out.
Just to update on this issue if anyone is still struggling.
My girlfriend and I started our game fresh and decided to tackle the Ringfort and grind through whatever crashing may arise until we got it done. We fast travelled directly there and set up our defenses, initiating the waves of enemies attacking the Ringfort.
We completed the mission on the first try, with zero crashes.
When we tried before and crashed so many times, we had spent a lot of time grinding near the fort in the fields and beyond. It may be that enemies and structures that should de-spawn in the distance did not correctly disappear and then accumulated. Then when the waves arrived, the amount of loaded enemies and assets nearby and far off became too much and triggered the crashes.
Starting fresh and heading straight to the Ringfort may be the best way to avoid the crashes. So make sure you have the defense materials first, then start the game fresh there.
Yes, the battlefield northwest of the ringfort is a place for crashes for a long time now.
Sometimes it works well to fight a few harvesters and tanks plus many hunters and runners there, sometimes it crashed even after one harvester and one tank.
Just guessing, but probably there is a spawn location for machines set in or under the surface. If a machine spawns there randomly, it causes issues that end in a crash.

Will ignore Ringfort until such time that this has been addressed.

Had the same issue found this as a workaround that might help someone. Using GeForce RTX 2070 on steam, pc with 2560 x 1440 display.
Reduced graphics settings in game from ultra to low and windowed the display.
Played through with no further crashes (and then reset the settings).
It’s any time the truck is hit with the aid of an explosive. Doesn’t count number if it’s from the bots or yourself. The game right away crashes.
also Yes, the battlefield northwest of the ringfort is a place for crashes for a long time now.
Sometimes it works properly to fight a few harvesters and tanks plus many hunters and runners there, every now and then it crashed even after one harvester and one tank.
Just guessing, however probable there’s a spawn region for machines set in or under the floor. If a machine spawns there randomly, it causes problems that result in a crash.
That’s what I’m guessing, too.
I have not had any issues in that area for a while now. My hardware is less than the other two. But missions in the area long been done. The area is a hot spot to spawn all types of machines and the reaper/rivals on my map. Not only do machines spawn there, but at times, they will just wonder in for a long battle.
But agree, it has had a lot of issues in the past, mainly after an update.
