Never saw this before I upgraded to .24 from .19. Does it have something to do with assigning admirals to areas? Attachments:

Playing as A-H, usually against Italy, I’ve not seen these…

blarglol If possible please try out the 1.00.25 beta & let us know if the issue persists with that release... I get the same error on loading the save with .25, "SetShipLocations: could not find area with name: XXX"
Also I get a KE Gaviota has no station, and CheckShipsOnForeignStations procedure

This is on trying to save before leaving. It is this foreign KE causing issues. Save is here. Attachments:

Will have the internal testers run your save to see what we can find, thanks.

Will have the internal testers run your save to see what we can find, thanks. So I found the area of the save file where the problem must be hiding. At line 213007 we see "[Nation8Ships]"
This corresponds to Spain's ships. The very first ship name we see two lines down is "Gaviota". This is their first KE spawned at game start.
The error that keeps popping up about a ship being on colonial station refers to it. I don't know what switching to version .24/25 from .19 did, but apparently the game can't figure out where this ship is, and must be reading it as it were supposed to be on FS somewhere.
I will check the list of Spanish ships to see what it's status/fate is in the UI currently, but this Gaviota is what is throwing errors.
In the save it's "scrapped" on line 213030. 213073 and -74 say that:
Ship0DestinationAreaName=XXX Ship0OrderedAreaName=XXX
This "XXX" area is part of the error you see above in my posts.
Edit - could a lack of a log be the issue? The next ships down all have log entries that tell the game it was scrapped. The Gaviota just says:
Ship0NumberOfLogEntries=0
Whereas Ship1, Delfin, has:
Ship1NumberOfLogEntries=20 Ship1LogEntry0=January 1887 Laid down in Spain as KE Delfin. Ship1LogEntry1= Ship1LogEntry2=August 1897 Moves to The Mediterranean Ship1LogEntry3= Ship1LogEntry4=September 1897 Moves to Indian Ocean Ship1LogEntry5= Ship1LogEntry6=October 1897 Moves to Southeast Asia Ship1LogEntry7= Ship1LogEntry8=February 1899 Moves to Indian Ocean Ship1LogEntry9= Ship1LogEntry10=March 1899 Moves to The Mediterranean Ship1LogEntry11= Ship1LogEntry12=April 1899 Moves to Northern Europe Ship1LogEntry13= Ship1LogEntry14=June 1899 Moves to The Caribbean Ship1LogEntry15= Ship1LogEntry16=July 1902 Moves to Northern Europe Ship1LogEntry17= Ship1LogEntry18= Ship1LogEntry19=February 1906 Scrapped
Of note is how these entries all are directly after the XXX sections. My theory is that somehow this got deleted for Gaviota in the game version upgrade, and that the entries are crucial for the engine to determine where a ship actually is.

Some good detective work, thanks! I figured out what the issue was. A line was missing from the save: "Ship0LocationAreaName=Northern Europe" I also added in the log entries.
