the game has been crashing consistently while tabbed out since launch and has gotten worse with the launch of S2

platform: steam, windows 11

hardware:

-CPU: ryzen 5 5600x

-GPU: RTX 2070 super 8gb VRAM

-RAM: 16gb, DDR4

-graphics driver has always been kept up to date. this has happened across multiple NVIDIA driver versions

issue: whenever i tab out of the game, there is a good chance the game crashes. the thing is, sometimes i get a Broccoli error, sometimes the game just freezes and i have to use task manager to kill it. sometimes the crash is instant, sometimes it happens after a few minutes. it is not very consistent. i play on fullscreen, 1920x1080, VSync off and medium-to-low graphics settings. this crashing was happening last season as well and i did find one post here with the same issue, but there was no resolution. the crashing seems more frequent this season. fortunately i dont experience any crashing while the game is in focus.
