nope, no issues....
To prevent CTD´s, just make sure to be at least 50 km away from land or any unit, air or sea.... It is a good thing to submerge, make an hydrophone 360° sweep, surface and then exit

To add to this...

I'd go so far, as to say... can be... at minimum, 25 nm's from land if using a 20 nm mod... (20, if using the 16 nm version... 10, if the 8 nm version.. I'd reckon, deep water areas are best.... so as to ensure no land beneath you... submerge & do as Capt Zap suggested.. to run a quick & dirty sonar sweep of the area... to ensure no ships about... & preferably, no buzzing buzzards aka aircraft... make sure of at least... 5 minutes (minimum) of being out of High TC (time compression, before some... newb asks... ) after all that is seen to & insured of, save... & at least, 3 minutes after the save... before exiting. I wait, 5 minutes... before & after doing a save... BUT that's just Me... & this should give you a safe game save point...

NOTE: Do NOT, over write any game save... make a fresh clean save point, as well...

Hope this helps...

Gute jagd, ihr Himmelhunde.

Thanks for that. I see I was too short in my explanation, but what you described is in fact the bible for avoiding CTD´s. Agree with you 100%

Yeah I follow the same rules as well when it comes to saves and rarely RARELY have corrupt saves because i got into that routine. I knew this mod worked fine as it has been for me so must be something going on your end Kal.

I forgot to mention that it is also a good idea to make a backup of the files in the Documents folder from time to time in case a career save gets corrupted...
