What happened?

I'm using the character editor to create my own creatures but every time I go to attach a joint from 1 fake limb to a main limb the game crashes.

This happens on 2 creatures I'm making.

Reproduction steps

1. Character editor
2. Create a creature
3. Animate creature so it can move
4. Create 3 fake limbs based on the crawler config for attacks
5. Try and joint from Fake limbs(attacking limbs) to head of creature creatue is frozen during this process.
6. Crash

Couldn't repro, but possibly fixed in https://github.com/FakeFishGames/Barotrauma-development/pull/5095.

More detailed steps to repro could help with verifying the issue and the fix, and debugging it in case it's still there:

• How did you create the creature (could you send the files here?)
• How did you create the "fake" limbs (I assume you mean limbs that don't have visible sprites, used only for positioning an attack)
• Was the fake limb marked as "Hidden"? Did it have some other settings different from the defaults?
