[0.17.63] Error when loading a save (An interface already exists under with name: freeplay)

[Thebri]

I needed to edit part of the report.

I have a save game that I can not open since 0.17.63.
When I go back to 0.17.62 it loads (and works) fine. (The screenshot says 0.17.60 - because we used that last time. 0.17.62 loads just fine)
If all mods are up to date or in the same state as in the save file that does not matter.

I found a similar issue here: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=74665

I can provide a safe game and my mods if needed but the poor chap in the link seems to have already provided a file...

While making the screenshot I accidentally loaded another file and that had the error too...

Cheers!
And thank you so very much for this game!

Thanks for the report.
Since the other thread shared the save that doesn't load, we'll use that one to mark the issue as resolved for next release and this one as duplicate: 74665
