Can't speak to your case as I never do that many roams or even alt-roams in ET asaik. But there could be a limit to the number of roams that Fritzbot (RTCW) can support before perhaps a memory leak or slowdown/freeze. I would back track by turning 10 of the roams to aim actions (jot down the IDs as you do this), then re-test. Repeat as needed till the game is stable. Then review the last 10 roam actions. How many other actions share the same close-node? Are the close-nodes flagged for anything (leap, jump etc)? Then try restoring 10 roams whose close nodes are unique and normal flagged. Is the Game still stable? If nothing other than the number of roams is indicated from testing, consider redesigning the waypoints for fewer roams maybe by less cross connections between nodes paths and abandoning little or difficult to use areas. Also learn to log or condump the console. There might be a warning or error message you should be paying attention to.

Sorry I can't be more help than shots in the dark.
