What happened?

When you log on to Nasdara and play for longer(More than 5 minutes) and load in lots of assets of that map and then log out and change the server in DayZ client

so lets say I go from

xxxx | EUROPE-DE|Nasdara server

to

xxxx | EUROPE-DE|1st Person Only server|Livonia|

immediately when the counter says 1 or 0 seconds the game closes. No errors no nothing not even a log error.
Im not an expert but

I suspect the issue might be related to asset caching, memory management, or resource cleanup when switching between servers running different maps.

After playing on Nasdara, the client may retain some map-related assets or other resources in memory. When connecting to another map, a problem during resource unloading, reinitialisation, or memory management could cause the client to crash.

The fact that the crash occurs at the very end of the countdown suggests that it might happen during the transition into the new server session. However, I cannot confirm the exact cause.
It happened every time I played official.
-------------------------------------------

I did a test run on three dead low pop servers(besides Nasdara):
1. Official Nasdara

2.Official Chernarus
3.Official Livonia

Every server is 3rd person
When switchign from Nasdara to either Cherno or Livonia this event occured like nearly every time
I think I did 10 tests
Switching to Livonia crashed the games 5 out of 5 times
And switching to Chernarus crashed 3 out of 5 times

-------------------------Last moment update
I forgot to clarify, but going from Chernarus or Livonia to Nasdara doesnt crash the game. So its not two way crash. Only Nasdara > Chernarus/Livonia
No overlays were used. No Nvidia,Discord,RivaTuner,Steam overlays.

Reproduction steps
  1. Launch DayZ(Client as in .exe) and join an official Nasdara server.

  2. Play for more than five minutes to allow the game to load various map assets.

  3. Disconnect from the server.

  4. Select another official server running a different map, such as Livonia or Chernarus.

  5. Wait for the connection countdown to reach its final second.

Exact build version (optional)
1.30.164078.38
Where did it happen?
Official
Is it modded?
No
Expected result

The client successfully connects to the selected server.
