game crashes when sleeping to progress save

[treavor17]

Hello everyone, I have a problem when I'm going to sleep to save the day and this keeps happening. Is there someone who had similar issues with me? How did you fix it?

Hi, I just saw your PM; thanks for sending me your full log: https://smapi.io/log/9b2c77f8173147e3b13848ec89dbdd6c

As shown in your screenshot; there's a "pickPersonalFarmEvent" error going on. And, I found the following in the log:

11:59:53    WARN    Error Handler    Removed invalid villager 'Sophia' in FarmHouse ({X:0 Y:0}) to avoid a crash when loading save 'TREVS_334637581'. (Did you remove a custom NPC mod?)

It looks like you're married to Sophia from SDV Expanded, but you removed the mod before divorcing her. So, the game sees you have a spouse, and is likely asking for kids. But, since her data is gone; it's crashing.

------------------------------------------
Fixing the issue:
We need to delete Sophia from the "spouse" section. You can give it a try, or I can do it for you if you post the save here. But, here's the wiki links, and info on how to do so.

Saves - Stardew Valley Wiki

The game saves progress when the in-game day ends, i.e., when the farmer goes to bed, collapses from exhaustion, or collapses at 2am. All progress during a day is lost if the player quits the game without ending the day. In multiplayer, the game saves after all players click through the prompts...
