Hmm...I'm no expert, but usually it's some _combination_ of mods that don't like each other, that make the game crash.  Or something that needs updating.  Some mods don't work well with the beta, yet, so there's another possible factor...

so do client mods make the game suddenly crash?

They should not. You should have an error in the log somewhere, you could try to see what mod is causing the issue. Usually, you will find the client_log in

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogetherANewReignBeta

Or

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether

 

If you aren't in the beta.

There are some client-side mods which often cause disconnections unless they are the only ones at all. Geometric Placement, crockpot prediction mods and quite often Gesture Wheel are frequently found culprits of client disconnection on my servers. @Plebgod needs to share the logs, they contain the necessary information.

I know with my old laptop, there weren't client side mods that caused disconnection, but a mod I know that caused some lag on my machine was a minimap mod. It's even lagged my bud @Brikelz machine, and his is way better than mine was.

Although I'll agree with @CaptainChaotica and say there are mods that work terribly together, and they don't even have to be just client side. I had a Shipwrecked Characters mod which let me use Warly in addition to his portable crockpot, however, using crockpot prediction caused the game to disconnect, and eventually crash.

Gesture Wheel?  Dude, of all the harmless-seeming...I never would've expected that one.  I mean, it affects absolutely no actual gameplay stuff--just makes it so you can tell your character to do silly little animations without having to type!  : P

Although I do remember reading about the geometric placement one interfering with stuff, when I was reading about some mods just recently on the Steam workshop.  Luckily I don't have that one, and I don't use crockpot prediction/smarter crockpots/whatever 'cos that strikes me as going into the Information That Makes Things Too Easy/Predictable side, along with Combined Status, anything that shows the other players at all time, etc.  So I'm safe there.

Good thing, too, 'cos I also have a Shipwrecked characters mod...possiby the same one.  Huh.

This is why it is prone to bugging: it changes a lot with every character.

Aren't the animations for each character grouped in the same directory? Like /joy contains each character's Joy animation?

The problem is if you have anything beyond Gesture Wheel on, because some of the older character mods don't have the newest animations. I think you may want to check the modding area if you wish to delve deeper.

Ohh, I see. Thanks for explaining.

You're welcome, but my experiences with modding are pretty much limited to writing quote strings and betatesting, so this is just a quick and dirty explanation of what tends to bug based on the logs my group members send me if they crash. Best ask some real modder :).

Ah, so that's it!  I'd been wondering.  And then there's event things.  Like, say I got a piece of the Lucky Beast costume as a Shipwrecked character, and they hadn't been updated with the new dance yet?  Although that's probably not what you're talking about.  New gestures would include stuff like...the sleepy and yawn ones, right?  Right.  I don't have the stuff for either of those myself yet, so...

Although I will always have my badass new chicken hat.  : P
