TA version 1.91.021 (May 1st build), if I build the standard default Yor freighter there is no problem, but whenever I upgrade to a faster freighter, I get CTD every single time when the freighter is built. I haven't experienced this with any other races yet, though I haven't tried them all yet either. Here is the debug file:

You can see at the end where it fails to create FreighterIII, no idea why though. Pity, as I liked playing the Yor so far. Guess I'll move on to another race until Stardock tells me how to fix this!
