Coutl constantly crashing with recent update

[Speedbird ATC]

After this recent update, coutl has been extremely prone to crashes, generally after arrival at a gate. Attached is a screenshot of the error, and my log.

After this recent update, coutl has been extremely prone to crashes, generally after arrival at a gate. Attached is a screenshot of the error, and my log.

Nothing in the recent update can have anything to do with this specific error, since nothing has changed in the FollowMe.

The "cruise speed must be positive" error has been reported and explained many times on the forum in the past, and (especially in case of the FollowMe, that must check the whole airport), it's usually an indication of a problem in the scenery, like overlapping nodes, orphaned nodes, unconnected links, unreachable parkings, etc.

Before this update, I never had this issue. I have had this error at airports that used to work just fine!

As I've said, nothing in the recent update can have anything to do with this specific error, since nothing has changed in the FollowMe.

This error happens because there's some problem in the scenery at a certain point but, if the path chosen by the vehicle won't have to pass through the problematic area, there will be no error.

You might have not noticed it just for pure luck, for the simple reason the FollowMe will start from a RANDOM parking each time, so the path chosen is not always the same.

I have the exact same error message and the same error log

Airport cache regeneration completed with success in 4 seconds

But I run Prepar3D 3.3.5

As I see it in the log: I have switched off Avatar Mode!

I get similar errors.  

Again, this happened after the last update.  it happens whenever I request GSX in an option, like deboarding, Catering etc

I also get this error:

Same here. After installing the latest update, Couatl crashes every time I load P3D with the previously mentioned error message.
This is on a fresh install of P3D (reinstalled Win10 + P3D last weekend).

[crash77]

Same thing man.  EVERYTHING was FINE before this update........now everytime I select catering service for my PMDG 777, GSX crashes.  With the KMEM scenery it stopped letting me use the catering option for my PMDG 737 at any airport, but it didnt crash GSX.(I made a post)  I'm running FSX Accel.  I dont know why but it seems like everytime their is an update GSX starts messing up......anyways here is the error:

Hi,

had the same issue, occuring just after the update while still sitting at the gate.
It was solved by downloading and using the full installer.

Oliver.

[Aang72]

I have done that as well and still has the same issues.

[B777ER]

Got this error earlier tonight. Usually FSDT's stuff "just works" but not now....

[virtuali]

All of you with a Couatl 3469 version in your log: the errors are caused because you haven't installed the yesterday's update, which should have prompted you to download and install the latest Stand-Alone Addon Manager.

We'll check about the remaining errors related to the current version.

I tried doing the same, Deboarding the default A321 at PHOG G13, and I don't have any errors. Check your FSX.CFG if all your Simobjectpaths lines are correct, as explained here:
