If you want to connect prefab to prefab/road and you have red-red just try to change origin on prefab. This option moving red node between all accesable nodes.

An offtopic question; which map are you working on? I see Bulgaria and Turkey def files and I think there are not much ETS2 mappers work on these areas. I worked on these areas back then maybe we can discuss ;)

On topic: Any mod in mod folder might cause editor crash. Try mods one by one. Or only use map mod that you will work on.

@elitegamer
I have a project to improve a semi-badly-realistic map of turkey. I have been granted the permission to edit and work on the map, for now... Hopefully I will get to share it later, though I need permission. My work relies on the EU-Turkey map... Which I have been improving, such as:

1. Now there is a ferry connection between Çanakkale and in Kilitbahir, rather than a non-existant bridge.
2. No more highways where they are not present.
3. New connection Kirklareli-Burgas-Varna-Ruse
4. No other connection to europe, but a ferry to Constanta and the one mentioned above.

Until today, I had been editing it all without any problem... But now the game started crashing, and I have not edited anything!!!

It suprised me that Turkey map creators gave permission to someone foreign to edit their work. I mean some of them don't even trust their colleagues.

I also worked on that area when I was a newbie on mapping things. Then I lead to Turkey border. You can find my topic under Academy ;)

About your crash IF you didn't change a thing but game still crashes, that means either game updated itself OR you saved your work wrong at the latest time. Sometimes winrar/winzip migh have issues.

Before anything, try to open map editor with vanilla SCS map. If it doesn't crash that means it is about mod.

Unless; (That might not work too but) delete base.scs and extracted base files. Let steam re-download base.scs file, then re-extract it.

I have some idea. Some time ago I opened my map, Promods and Egypt in same moment. I dont saved it and autosave not appear too. When I removed Egypt map my editor crashed. I go to documents ==> ETS2 and I deleted whole folder editor. Then, editor back to work :) Try it (of course do a backup copy)

Re-extracting the base file did not work. Now did deleting the editor file. I reinstalled ets2 and it fixed itself :)
