Seems to be caused potentially by factorio itself, but both Beacons and PyAL show up. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=121248&p=638527#p638527

pyal is there because of a remote call, i assume the error itself has something to do with vatbrains since that's the only periodic function in the mod that deals with beacons at first glance. Either way i can't really do a lot since the crash doesn't tell me what exactly is the problem

[DrNjitram]

We can confirm it's vatbrains. Once the cartridge is inserted the game crashes.

From boskid: I tried to reproduce the issue from fresh but i was unable. It looks like in this specific save file those beacons you have are in an inconsistent state. Specific beacon that is crashing is at [gps=-553,-788].

Not sure how it happened, but seems it's unable to be reproduced from scratch. We will replace the beacons on our end and hopefully that fixes it

[DrNjitram]

Confirmed that removing and replacing the beacons fixed the issue. I'd chalk it up to a cosmic ray.

was appearantly an issue with migration from 1.1. Is fixed for 2.0.20. https://forums.factorio.com/121248
