crash on departure when playing on local server

FL crashes whenevery i depart from the bases, both planets and stations, in the border worlds, atleast the outcast bases, after I've just received a mission.
I'm connected to a local server.
only the client crashes, the server keeps running.
The server doesn't report any error in the console.
I play regular Fl 1.1
with standard windows xp.
with a mobility radeon 9700 pro 128mb.

Any ideas on what could be wrong ?

Are you running the client and the server on the same machine ? , if this is the case then that is your problem because that just doesn't work all that great

otherwise check if there are any mods loaded on the client and any saved games tha remain

I know you have to remove the refrigerator door when placing it at the curb , but then the neighbours kid would get away for sure , damn moral dillema's

Thanks for the info

I used to run the server and client on the same machine, never had any problem. Now i recently installed the game again, and i'm having some strange probs. Every time a client leaves the server, his reputations are reset when he comes back again! Could be running the client on the server's machine be the cause of that?
