Currently, I have a situation where my whole colony is homeless on a caravan, and I chose the 2nd location to stay after abandoning the first. This results in a "Failed to generate" message from the game. I've been able to play relatively issue-less on my save so far, this was the first major issue I noticed with my mod list/setup.
I'm unsure which mod could be causing the issue. I did a little rookie research online and deleted a couple mods (MoonLight and Clean Pathfinding), as I read pathfinding mods and time dependent mods can sometimes cause issues generating a new settlement. Aside from that, the issue remains, and I can easily add them back and load the original save.
My mod list / starting log:

My "exception" event in the log I opened after the fail/crash:
QuoteException from asynchronous event: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I have a very similar issue (failed to generate map when trying to create a new settlement).
It looks like some hexes on the map are "cursed" (i.e. always fail to generate) while others are fine. It looks like the bad ones are generally mountains.
The first lines of the error log mention RimFridge, so I disabled that mod, and that seems to fix the issue.
I'm not familiar with the code of RimFridge (nor with mods in general) but I wonder if the issue might come from a behavior of RimFridge that gets triggered only on mountain maps, maybe because of some object that would only exist there (maybe mushrooms or something like that).
Now that the map was generated successfully, I'll see if I can re-enable RimFridge or if that's basically looking for trouble :D
My error log looks very similar. I disabled
Hi,
normaly RimFridge is a very stable mod and i never encounter problems with it.
But generating a new settlement via caravan isn't a common task. Let me gues you got a minified fridge at the caravan inventory ?
If you still got the savegame before you create the settlement, you should try to contact Kiame the author (forum or steam) and give him the link to the savegame.
He is very competent and i think he will find out why the settlement fail with his mod (or conflict with another one).

You ever find a fix?
Running into the same error :'(
