0.30.3 NPC spawning bug?

[MrSpike]

Version:
v0.30.3

Description:
Upon loading the game, or loading new areas, the generation of moving NPCs will crash the game
(_core.exe has stopped working)

Steps to Reproduce:
When being followed by bandits move towards nearest town, when the game loads a new area it will freeze and stop working

Consistency:
Every time I am running back to town with bandits chasing me. Only 1 in 10 exception so fairly regular.

System Specs:
Vista 64bit operating system
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250
(ask for more if required)

Severity:
Frequent Crash (pretty much preventing any play.)

Workaround:
Not currently known other than importing party to a new game, still occurs later however.

Crash Dump problem?
Having searched the files there is no available crash dump for this version. I know in previous versions when my game has crashed it has brought up a window showing it has created a crash dump. This doesn't seem to happen here.
Apologies for not providing this as I know it is probably the most important detail for fixing.

Although some aspects fixed with 0.30.4, I.e. the problems loading with bandits moving in the vicinity, I still get problems when approaching a new town. Loading the game in the original town works for me, but as a player who focuses on trade for income, it's impossible to play still.

Unfortunately no crash dumps still as the process has to be killed.
