CTD after a while (New save game SS + IR + ROTC)

CTD only doesn't happen when I disable SS plugins. It happens seconds after I load my recent save files (Don't have any more)
What I did in the new save:
(Stuff stuff stuff, concord)
Activated City Manager (ROTC) for Sanctuary, Set Codsworth as Mayor
(Stuff stuff stuff, everything is fine with SS)
Activated City Manager (ROTC) for Sunshine Tidings, Set Piper as Mayor
Donated some supplies to Sunshine Tidings
Set Piper as Companion
Donated some supplies to Sanctuary

Then 5 min in the game first crash happens. Now every save game crashes after a few seconds even the save before i set Piper as Companion

Another thing. All savefiles are after I donated supplies at Sunshine Tidings

I have an papyrus log if you are interested

I was just going to report a similar issue. In both a brand new game and my existing level 100 game I'm getting the same thing happen.

In my old game it started after I setup Greentop Nursery as my first RotC automated settlement and assigned MacCreedy as the leader as well as Outpost Zimonja with X8-66 as the leader there. Both flyovers took place with no issue that I could see. Shortly thereafter either near each settlement or when fast travelling somewhere else I get a CTD.

In my new game the same thing happens. After escorting Preston et. al. to Sanctuary and doing the preliminary settlement quests about 2 minutes after activating the automated settlement with Codsworth as leader I CTD.

Reverting to saves before enabling the automation appears to remedy the issue. Well at least in the new game - still get plenty of other CTDs in the old game.
 
CTDs are almost always the result of a missing mesh in something. First thing I would do is reinstall all of SS and its expansions manually.

If the crashes continue, remove all your SS addons and try again, if they stop, then an addon is the issue. Reinstall the addons until the crashes happen again and the last one that you reinstalled is the likely problem child.

Report that addon to the author and they should be able to correct the issue.
 
Can you give some debug info so KG can narrow in on the problem? The more info he has, the faster the resolution will be.

If you can even narrow it down to the particular update script, that will hopefully be enough.
 
I've been getting random CTD's in settlements that have SS objects in them for about a month now. I've updated all the SS mods that have updates. I also made sure SS and the others where manually installed.

(this is in addition to the new CTD related to donating scrap to the city)
 
It looks like a new download and reinstall of RotC has fixed my issues. No CTDs in either save game. Greentop in the old save is coming along nicely.

Edit - It's back. Looks like it could be the upgrade CTD. Starting getting it again at Greentop after donating junk. Rolling back to prior to donating helped for a while but I think then I started hitting the natural upgrade point and the CTD came back.

Phew more debug info? I believe it's the upgrade-script because of the time the CTDs happen.
The first one I was just randomly wander outside of Sanctuary heading to Tenpine (was already beyond the lake)
Then every CTD occured on every last 3 save files (14:38, 14:40, 14:42) a few seconds after I loaded the save file up.

I fixxed it temporaly by disabling the plugins, saving, loading SS+IR+RotC again. Getting the holotape again. And so on.

Haven't played much since then yet.
 
I'm fiddling around with it now. I just tried donating up to 100% of level 0 over 5 minutes after enabling manual city upgrade. It seemed ok but spawning in 2 settlers caused a CTD seconds after the second one.

Do you have Papyrus logging turned on? If so post the log the next time it crashes. It may give KG a clue as to why it's crashing. (maybe)
 
I do now. Log attached for The King. Plugin list also attached.

This crash was after running over to Breakheart Banks from Greentop. Killed a few muties, fast travelled to Taffington, sent 3 homeless settlers to Greentop, waited for notification they'd finished building, fast travelled back to Greentop and CTD before loading screen transitioned.
