get_plex_tile_count LE/Residential lots revert to communtiy lot

Last Exception Error - Lot Type Issues

I'm experiencing a Last Exception error related to the get_plex_tile_count function in build_buy.py (line 838). The error message states that this function returned "NULL" without setting an error.

What’s happening in my game?

Some residential lots randomly change into community lots without me doing anything.

When this happens, a household wrongly becomes the owner of a business they shouldn't own.

Even if I manually sell the business and change the lot back to residential, most of the time the issue reverts it back. However I have found a workaround on another thread but I'd like to have an official patch that fixes it obviously.

What I’ve tried so far:

Changing the affected lot to Generic, saving, then switching it back to Residential.

Checking the map for any rental units (I don’t have any in my world).

I've removed the mods and custom content. And also have plenty of backups of the save file in question. I don't have any rental units in my game or had downloaded it (if so, all of them were set as residentials once I placed them from the gallery)

I've also cleared all my cache files

I'm still in the process of updating all my mods and deleting the outdated ones.

This new Last Exception error message suggests a problem with rental units that have no tiles, but as I have said before, I don’t have any rental lots placed. However, my game seems to think there is one and I don't know how to get rid of this issue!

Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a fix? Or knows what is happening with this second bug? Thanks!
