Windows Game crashing bug with raccoon

[Alridan]

hello, I found a bug/glitch that crashes the game so here is what happens.
I wake up go to the raccoons check what they want, I then go to the traveling merchant and buy the two items that are juice and pickles that spawns in her stock I head back to the raccoons and open the bundle page which crashes the game.

I am on windows 11, my in-game language is English, I am in single player, I am using Keyboard and mouse, I am on Version 1.6.14 Build 24317

I encountered the same problem. I bought juice from the traveling cart and when I went to talk to the racoon with the jucie in my inventory, the game crashed. I tried to reproduce it at least 3 times and it happened every time.

Oh, this is an interesting crash! Basically, when you open the raccoon menu it highlights the items you can donate. It does this by checking if you're donating the right type of juice, so let's say Broccoli Juice. How juices work is that they essentially have an additional property - preservedParentSheetIndex. It checks if that preserved index is the correct one, and if so you can donate it. However, when you buy a juice from the cart (or get it from a spouse, or get it from a Statue of Endless Fortune, and maybe other sources?) it doesn't have this preservedParentSheetIndex, because it is unflavored. This check then leads to a crash, because it didn't expect that to be null.
