hello, I have experienced a hard crash on a dedicated server with this mod.
I believe it is related to interactions with the mod Blueprint Sandboxes by nothingtohide. I do not have any other mods in use which alter surfaces or player locations.
A player had left their Sandbox (which is a Surface in the game) and then disconnected from the server, and a moment later the game crashed and pointed towards Planet Picker:
