[RC3] Crash while scrolling through items to purchase

I was scrolling through a list of items to buy by holding down the down arrow, and experienced a crash.

Do you remember what station you were at? Can you reproduce it? Thank you!

It was in St. K's, at the commodities exchange at the ring. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it. Resurrecting, traveling to the ring, and scrolling doesn't lead to the crash, nor have my attempts at more realistic recreations of my original actions.

I figure it out.

Turns out to be a bug that's been there since RC1. If you've looking at a list of items in St. K's arcology, AND if any items get deleted (e.g., if fruit rots and gets deleted) then the game will crash.

It's a rare bug, but it does happen. Thanks for helping me find it.
