I have tried to recreate the error, with the latest of the mod, and so far i haven't been able to do it, so it seems to be working now.
I don\t know if it will help, but i had the smaller drone "network" connected to the bigger one for fueling the requester before i disconnected and making it crash and i also experienced the error once before, where i also was creating smaller network, unintentionally, when i was removing a supply depot (It was at the copper ore patch to the north west, the only active this save have, if i remember correctly).
I hope it helps a bit and thanks for the quick fix :)
