Bug / Crash Importing Obi Rope in Unity 2020.1.0b1 fails

[fiasko]

Hello everybody,

System: macOS 10.15.13
Unity: 2020.1.0b1
Obi Rope: 5.1.0

I just tried to import Obi Rope 5.1.0 through the Package Manager. It start's normal with the import progress bar. Unity then asks after a while if it can do an "API Update" (it doesn't matter if I click "no thanks" or "Go Ahead!") and a couple of seconds after that, the Unity window just vanishes. I checked the Editor.log file and it ends with the following lines: 

Code:

Start importing Assets/Obi/Samples/RopeAndRod/SampleResources/Blueprints/Tearable cable.asset using Guid(61d053dd5abd943919947f833abd0569) Importer(-1,00000000000000000000000000000000) Serialization depth limit 7 exceeded at 'Obi::ObiConstraints`1.actor'. There may be an object composition cycle in one or more of your serialized classes.

Stacktrace:

After that, I cannot open the project (it crashes while importing) until I manually delete the Obi folder from the assets folder not using Unity.

Unchecking "Tearable Cable.asset" before importing also leads to a crash, where the offending asset seems to be 
Assets/Obi/Samples/RopeAndRod/SampleResources/Blueprints/Crane.asset

After that, I didn't investigate this further. I hope this is useful for troubleshooting this issue.

Thanks!
