Game freezes when recording a vehicle path

TL;DR: Every time I try to record a vehicle path, the game freezes when I reach the finish line.

EDIT: FIXED! I had 2 truck stops in the exact same spot. Deleted one and it fixed the problem.

EDIT: NOTE: Someone else had a similar issue which was caused by a truck stop in paused status. For them, deleting and recreating the truck stop fixed the problem!

I've been playing a modded file for a while, not had any major issues until now, but have been building a highway network of raised roads, and whenever I try to record a vehicle path for automated tractor deliveries, it seems to work fine until I reach the finish line of the recorded path. The moment I complete the vehicle path, the game freezes and stops responding without completing the save of the path.

It feels like it gets stuck in an infinite loop. I also noticed the RAM usage of the game gradually increases until it's allocated everything available (32 GB!!). After a few seconds it starts reducing the RAM usage, but after a while goes back up to max again, in a cyclical pattern. I left the game running in this state for a good 5 minutes but it never recovered. Finally I have to force close the application.

This file has a wide variety of mods, mostly small QoL stuff. I'm pretty new to modded Satisfactory, though am a computer programmer and have a lot of experience building mod packs for a number of games. If there's a log file I can access, let me know! I wasn't able to find anything.

Attached is a list of the mods I used at one point on this file related to Vehicles. The yellow circled ones I turned off a long time ago, and the red ones I turned off in an attempt to fix this problem (though it still is happening). The other four mods are still on. Let me know if you need a more comprehensive list.
