Hi, Diegrimreaper sorry about asking but specifically have you tried the steps outlined in the below link?

https://www.simsettlements.com/site...ons-for-recovering-a-problem-settlement.7125/
 
I have followed the tutorial step by step, even moving backwards towards the settlement, i think i can get a bit closer , but it still crashes

Then I recommend option#2, It’s further down in the thread above. There is no magic sauce here.

Sorry.

OPTION 2 - Console Remote Reset


Console Remote Reset
should be used when:
  • You are playing on PC AND
  • You consistently CTD whenever you attempt to approach the settlement in question AND
  • You are unable to get close enough to the settlement in question to successfully use the City Manager 2078 Holotape Recovery option
 
That did not work either, at least i could not get it to work, damn shame to. Anyway (as a certain radio host would say) the mod is still 10/10 w/o it all my settlements would be viking houses with 10 turrets and thats all :)
 
A bit of an update, as mentioned before i tried the console reset , with no success. However i've noted that the closest i can get to Starlight is from the diner side (left side of the map, i think). From what i can tell a lot of the Sim objects are still there , they have not been deleted. Prev it crashed before (while?) loading the settlement, not i can see its it pretty close up, but still cant go in.

Ok, DieGriMReaPer. I really do respect your persistence. I am going to help you. I am not a modder, I am not a SS-Moderator and my advice and links are not going to be exactly acceptable and I can not stand behind them. They also can lead to more long-term damage to your game should you chose to use them. One will experimental the other is more of the same.

Give me a few minutes and I will edit this post.

Ok,

1. https://simsettlements.com/site/ind...ery-procedure-article-discussion-thread.7126/

You will need to save your game and carefully read what the 3 users below say
here read focus on the postings by:
GladiusVictorius, the user who brought this to everyone's attention
Whisper
Snarkywriter

I would also carefully test your results. Once you move forward in your save you may fix the one issue and get more in return. But they apparently got positive results.

2. I am going to be brutal here. I strongly recommend you just go back in your save file to a point where the settlement was working. Often these issues are caused by something the user did inadvertently either in quest dialog, trader dialog, or some other interaction at the settlement that was not completed by the player or glitch in the vanilla game, like a jacked CTD, save or scrap / power or other event that then corrupted something in the save file going forward that then cause issues like this. The fix in 1 above will throw that settlement back to a vanilla state but as far as I know, it is unclear what else it may do.

Going back is hard. Lets say IDK, hours and hours but this normally will fix the issue if you can avoid the event in the settlement that caused the glitch in the first place.

This will not fix a mod conflict or other mishap that may be buried in even earlier gameplay. Sometimes it can be something you did early game but that only manifests many hours later. It could be anything even a bad or corrupted mod installation removal, movement or another general glitch with the game itself.

Sorry Man, but this is the best advice I have.

Unfortunately, if a remote destruct doesn't work, there's nothing to be done. Once you have this occur, it's a clear sign that your current load order isn't going to hang with CPs on auto-upgrade. Best to change those upgrades to manual so you can confirm everything works after it completes.

Could also be a sign that you need to turn off Clutter in the Performance Options to greatly reduce the number of items SS is spawning.
