No, the .zip install is fully self contained.

Ok so after further testing. on the Standalone version. with no external blueprints. i created a bp of my entire vulcanus base and pasted it about 20 times to force the event. no event occurred. However, i copied my Bp storage file from the steam version and loaded the standalone version and immediately got the event upon loading. which leads me to believe that the issues are within the bp storage file. please correct me if i am wrong

That is crashing while loading the save now though. Does it always crash when you load it?

If loading the same save sometimes crashes and sometimes not, it's a clear indicator of a hardware problem. In this case it is crashing loading a blueprint from the library, so a change in it could skew that. You can try moving the library file and save to your other machine and test if loading it there causes the same issue.

You just tried the blueprint on the other device, or did you actually copy the library file and save file and loaded the save?

Well, if the same files crash on one system but not on the other, then it's a hardware problem. If you find a way to reliably cause a crash on the stable system, let us know.
