Game keeps crashing at the same point

[tseitsei]

I was playing career mode and doing the mission where I have to save that one kerbal from LKO. I had just done nice burn that gave me a 300m approach to that guy. After that I saved the game ofcourse. Now every time I open the save and get close than 1km from the kerbal with my ship, the game just crashes. Every time at exactly the same point so obviously the save file is somehow not good. That is also the only save file I have from that career (I know it's still at the very beginning but I wouldn't want to start all over again) so is there any way I might be able to fix that?

Well at least now I know better to make different save files before every launch to make sure I don't have to start from the scratch if this kind of thing happens again...

I'm not really sure if their is a way to fix this particular issue. I'd suggest editing the ship into a different orbit, with the according fuel levels, then trying again.

This sounds like a thread better suited to the Support forums than the Gameplay questions one...

So it does, moving.

I had a similar issue with a ship in transit to Duna. Every time I would switch to it from my quicksave, the game would crash. Timewarping for a while instead of switching right away allowed me to finally switch without crashing.

If you have enough fuel, try avoiding the approach this time beyond physics loading range and let an orbit or two pass. You can create a secondary quicksave with Alt+f5 if you're on PC, which you will have to name, before you try it so you don't have to worry about overwriting your current quicksave.
