Default car ferry plop causes CTD.

[Jedimarine 119]

Problem:  The game default car ferry dock is causing a crash every time you attempt to place it.

scale of problem:  Can only get the issue to occur in one city, with 2 other cities connecting to it via ferry traffic.

Suspicion:  recently updated NAM and adjusted traffic scaling.  Perhaps there is too much load for the ferry?

Other Pertinent facts:  running default pedestrian ferry without issue in city...I can plop Peg's OWW2 ferry landing for car ferries, but traffic pattern does not connect to them.

Next Test:  Disconnecting existing ferry connections from neighboring towns, see if severing that load will allow me to plop. *Update*  Removing ferry traffic connected to city had no effect...removing all other existing ferries had no effect...for some bizarre reason, there is one island in the city, in one location, that I can place the ferry...a default ferry had been there previously.  CTD persists.

If anyone has had a similar issue or knows what is going on, let me know asap.

Thank you for you time.

Update:  Below is an image of the city in question:  the zone circled in green is where I can get the ferries to appear.

Yes...this is my amusement park city.

Important Update:  Have discovered the ferry can be plopped in all orientations EXCEPT westward...tested again in other cities and can now replicate issue in all cities.

The ferry landing will not plop in a westward direction...it causes a CTD.

I have no idea what may have caused this issue or how to fix it.

Known issue . . . there's already a thread about it here.  We've figured out how to solve the problem and will include the fix (which will require removing the AutoPlace FAR feature that was introduced in the May 2010 NAM release) in our next update.
