So I made a prison with the new Cleared for Transfer DLC and it was working fine despite a few bugs. Then came the update 1.01. I was able to run my prison a couple of times, but now it constantly crashes every time I load the prison. My older prisons before the new DLC still works fine.

I have absolutely no knowledge of bug fixing or programming in general, but when I open the crash dump file (screenshot below) it mentions memory corruption a few times. If this is the problem, is it possible to fix, or should I give up my prison?

Thanks :)

I'm having the same problem. Started a prison with the new transfer DLC which worked fine and then suddenly crashed. When reopening it would insta-crash (auto-save file too). I thought it may have been a problem with saving to the cloud so i gave up on it and remade a new prison. This prison worked for the day or two that i played on it, saving (not to cloud) and logging in and out a bunch of times. I experienced some crashes which turned out to be because i was cloning cells that had the 'soft pillow' item which would cause the prison to crash. When i realised that, i stopped cloning all together and kept playing smoothly (and sometimes multiplayer) for a few hours, saving and logging in and out a couple of times. When i logged back in the next day, the same thing happened like it did with the first prison, as soon as it loaded in, it would crash instantly.

It is really upsetting to have to restart prisons due to bugs and it is making the game unplayable. I'm hoping someone can tell me how to fix this issue because it seems any prison i make on the DLC breaks after some time.
