Seems to be related to the signs. But you do have a mod installed and it *may* be related to the error.

It looks like the game is trying to find a sign in a dictionary object and using "null" as the key. This looks to me like one to route to the programmers.

The mod installed is "Starter Classes" and that doesn't sound like something that will intermix with Sign Tech.

Another possibility is that a POI's definition is somehow referrng to a non-existent sign or maybe there's a missing _signs.xml file for the POI, but still letting a null reference sneak through is rarely useful. Better would have been to detect it earlier and issue an error about the real issue.

I forgot to mention, this was on my friend's dedicated server that he runs from home, and the Starter Classes mod isn't installed there, only locally on my machine. I'll remove it on my end and see if that makes any difference though.
