Good to hear
I'm really surprised. H.sie's v16 and Stiebler's 4c usually solve problems, not cause ones.
I find myself playing one patrol, while tinkering with something minor and changing it between loads, then tinkering with something major and changing it while back in port. Sometimes I get it wrong, and the minor change turns out to be a major one, which is a guaranteed mid-patrol crash. It usually loads though, if I change the mod soup back to what it was at the moment that I saved the game.
