The game crashes to desktop after a few minutes of loading and running the prison with no error message. I had this problem before the last big hotfix update (which fixed the issue). Ever since that update the prison worked and loaded fine with 0 crashes until just tonight when after a few minutes of running the prison after loading it just crashes. The game isn't at all ever laggy for me and I play with no mods even installed.

I would attach the crash file but for some reason ever since I've had the game they're just always corrupt, no idea why. I have a legit version of the game that I bought off Steam.

This just affects this one prison, is that right?

Any mods involved?

Under what game patch was it started please?
 
Yeah, just that one prison. Both manual saves and the autosave are crashing. I tried some others I have and they work fine.

No mods

The problem has started just yesterday on the latest version of the game. I had this problem before which was fixed with the July 14th Rock 1.03 Update, but it was either island-bound itself that started causing the issue or one of the hotfixes just after the update.
 
I ran that save for about 2 hours with no problem at all. Have you got access to any other machine to try it on?
 
Yes, so there is nothing wrong with the save. The problem was I was starting up the save and buying more doctors, I had more doctors scheduled in the deployment scheduler than I actually had employed. So whenever I buy more doctors and they go to try and fill the vacant deployment slots needed, the game will crash.
