This has been happening to me for the past week. So frustrating. I have completed all missions and can now focus on adding detail to my Springfield. I have been adding detail as I go, and have rarely had crashing issues until very recently. Now the game is practically unplayable. I crash when assigning Homer, Lisa, and most recently, Barney. The game even crashes when I try to scroll through the decorations menu, so I can't even finish adding hedges. I don't even have all of the land nor any premium buildings (save for the sign and lair). I'm not sure how I'll be able to add more to my town in the future if I'm having this problem now. It took me two days to clear a modest amount of debris because of crashes.
So frustrating.
Thank you. I've stated this for a few weeks now. Every since the post-holiday update, I have had problems, well before I had enough money or land to do the new upgrades (e.g. Burns' mansion). Characters would cause crashes. Looking at the decorations menu caused crashes. Even trying to buy a new square of land caused crashes.
The only way I have updated is by slowly doing items, synchronizing a LOT (by going to the neighbor-eenos area and returning), and expanding my view. When characters crash, I found by expanding my view, I can get assign them tasks without crashing.
My guess is server issues - more we have, the more it crashes. But I found it odd that despite no changes to my Springfield, I started crashing post-update. And I find it odd that these crashes affect a lot of games, but many others are stable.
I'm hoping the next update will correct this, but... Still, for a game meant to expand and one that has constant updates, this is a serious issue. Eventually everyone will crash and there'll be no game.
