Crashes related to Character NPCs

Ben Garbutt shared this bug ago

Need More Information

in game crashes become more frequent, it's now crashing as it loads up.

I think this is related to NPC behaviour, There's an economy station next to my base when I'm loading in.

If you need more data let me know I an probably zip the savegame if necessary.
