Graphics Card related CTD when controlling a drone
I wanted to run a few fixes listed as official workarounds; verifying, deleting CFG, deleting ShaderCache, none seemed to help. I will preface by saying I have a lot of mods too but never had issues with the mod-list before. Even so I went through and removed various mods to see if they were triggering certain problems, I thought maybe it was the nanobot drill system but nope.

So running through the backup saves (thank god for not disabling them) and it turns out that every save I had where I was controlling a drone and looking through its camera was causing the CTD error.

Are drone cameras a known bug that I wasn't aware of?

Hi, may be a new Bug that needs to be reported on the Official SE1 Support Portal, the link is in the Green Pin above discussions.

That said, best is to test in brand new created world where the save files never been modified by Mods to have the first Clue as to know if it happens only when the save files have been modified.
+
Report on the Portal if the same in that brand new created no Mods world.


__________

CAUTION when removing Mods :

-> Not all Mods but some Mods delete and replace important codelines in the save files that are not added back in when removing the Mod and doing so can corrupt the save files.

That is why it is very very important to test Mods in a copy made with "Save as + Change save name" and go fix the original save if all good in the testing copy.

Arcturus,
I will go test this Bug you have found and tell how it went on my side.

I will test in a world where the save files never been modified.

Arcturus,
can you share the exact STR (Steps To Reproduce) you do to crash the game ?

Because I was not able to crash the game while controlling a ship using RC block and click the control button from the Remote access menu.

I have tested while not in camera and in camera :
