Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
So I was playing my route as usual yesterday, saved it and this morning discovered Metro Overhaul tool. I downloaded all the required assets for the mod and enabled it. It was working but kept showing the error Object reference not set to an instance of an object [System.NullReferenceException] when pressing play. I exited and re-entered and found my route completely frozen and unplayable. It too had asked that the save on the realistic population had not been used on that save before (which is untrue). I unsubscribed from the mod and the ones attached but still no joy. I loaded a save from yesterday before installing the mod but it seems to be in trouble too. I have tried disabling them as much as I could but am out of ideas. Can you help?

Can you replicate the issue? If yes, please explain how you did it.
No, something similar happened before a good time ago but it seemed to fix by re-enabling a certain mod.
