Fusion 18.6 chashes when loading network render queue

I experienced continuous and reproducible crashes on Fusion Studio 18 when it is loading a large AutoQueue file with multiple frames skipped. I need to render every second frame of the large sequence, hence the queue file looks like this:

If I try to reload this queue when Fusion restarted, Fusion quits immediately.
If I reduce the number of frames to be rendered in that queue (to, like, 120), it will load normally.
This issue also causes crashes when the last frame is rendered.

I was able to reproduce this on multiple machines. So this is definitely a bug and should be fixed, both for v18 and v19.

I can’t speak about the crashes when the length of the queue is long. But I definitely also experience the crashes when it ends rendering.
