Source of ship CTD discovered
This is intended for those of us who mod ships. I have discovered the reason why some modded ships cause the game to crash. It is definitely caused by the placement of a ship's masts. I am working on a freighter that has been crashing the game whenever it explodes. By setting the mast destruction trigger in Zones.cfg to "No" i managed to stop it from crashing the game. This can serve as a work-around to avoid this bug, although the best solution is to be careful about where the ship's masts are positioned. I'm not 100% sure how to prevent it from happening (other than the aforementioned workaround) but you should try to keep the masts from intersecting the hull or superstructure. Note that it's entirely possible that objects other than masts can cause this crash, so if anyone has more info, let me know.
