Mole rat / Bloodworm interior bug

[BlackTestament7]

I've been having a weird issue for a long period of time that I've ignored for the most part but it's starting to annoy me and I figured I'd ask about it here to see if anyone else has run into it. When I'm in an interior that has mole rat or bloodworm enemies my game will completely crap itself and I lose the ability to save in any fashion and I can't leave the area or I'll get an infinite loading screen. Pretty much a crash without going to the desktop. From what I've gathered it's a bug to "Scrap Everything" or "Place Everywhere" or maybe even the UFO4 Patch but I've played without those mods in a playthrough and it still happened so I'm not too sure.

The only "fix" I've found was to turn tdetect off in the console then kill them off, or use killall or kah to deal with them. It wouldn't annoy me if it were only them but sometimes modders put mole rats or bloodworms in the middle of areas of enemies and once that happens it's an immediate issue and I'll have to play to that point and then console them out. At this point, I'm even looking for a fix that could remove both enemies from the game altogether. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice?

It's probably not scrap everything or place anywhere, but do make sure you have the right versions and have them in the right spot in the load order (there is an ultimate addition to scrap everything that has an additional patch, so do make sure you have it). Scrap Everything is last on the load order by the way.

 

I have spring cleaning in too and so far no issues with mole rats or blood worms, still have to save the kid and there are plenty of mole rats where I'm going and no crashes there, just trying to avoid the things and not get infected to pick up the serum. Just remember don't go too overboard like John Candy in Caddyshack, stomp the rats or worms and deal with the spawn point/hole as needed.
