[0.13.0] Crash during autosave

I'm can't recall exactly what I was doing, but I think I had clicked on a substation or medium electric pole and was watching the graph of power usage, clicking between the first few graph options (many times) including and between 5s and 10h.
I noticed that the crash occurred during an autosave (I saw it in the background before I clicked ok on the crash dialog box), so I'm just guessing that it's related to that.

The game is base, playing with a save from 0.12.35 (I think it was initially started on something like 0.12.33 though) which has been fine for many hours. I did have one mod on the save, but disabled it because the save wouldn't load on 0.13.0.

Attached in the zip file are three files:
the crash log
the autosave which was in the middle of compressing during the crash
the previous, successful autosave

I skimmed through other crash logs and based on some hexadecimal addresses (I'm just trying to save you some time, possibly), I found these:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=27439
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=27410

I loaded the last autosave and it crashed during the next autosave again. After that, I loaded the autosave and did nothing--no movements, keyboard or mouse, and it autosaved without a crash. I then tried to see if it would crash during normal play again, and I couldn't get it to happen a third time despite many attempts. Sorry I'm not more help.

Attached in this second zip file are:
the crash log
the autosave which was in the middle of compressing during the crash

Just to keep it organized with the crash reports, I'll make a third post. I can't make sense of it, sometimes it crashes, but when trying to reproduce it step-by-step, it's not easy.

Attached is the third crash report and botched save file. These autosave crashes occur when loading the last successful autosave, attached in the first post.

Hi, thank you for the report.
I loaded your working save from the first post and it had some rocks in construction network repair queue, which is a bug that was often causing crashes and/or save file corruption in 0.13.0. It has been fixed in 0.13.1 so you should be able to play your save in the latest build (0.13.4) without too much problems.
If Steam didn't update Factorio to the latest experimental build, make sure you have selected "experimental" in beta branches in Factorio properties in Steam.

Please let us know if the issue is not fixed for you, or you find more bugs, I really liked your bug report.
