This crash was in the latest patch v0.0.11a as I bought this only a few hours ago today. The picture I posted earlier about the softlock also shows that it's alpha v0.0.11a.
I got the crash again when fighting a final boss. It said my ship shuttered with the pestilence touch and then crashed. It had the same error log. It didn't crash the second time when I scrolled the crew page down.
