Seamoth with Perimeter Defense upgrade causes random game crash

From a new start the game runs fine with little lag or glitch until I build the Seamoth. Once that vehicle is built lag becomes an issue but is still playable without crashing right up until I build and install the Perimeter Defense upgrade. After that lag becomes a serious issue, the soundscape glitches (playing random sounds and sometimes not playing any environmental or creature sounds at all), and the game crashes randomly and frequently. This problem persists even in the other vehicles as well after this point, regardless of the location of the Seamoth or the upgrade. Removal of the upgrade doesn't change the problem either. I haven't found any solutions in the troubleshooting section nor in the forums that has helped or changed this issue in any way. Also, I am technologically inept, so any fix that requires a deep understanding and modification of programs is beyond me. I would really appreciate any help that I can understand and make use of. Many thanks in advance.

    This might be why some people end up having to destroy their Seamoth.

    Ok, so, to test this, can you try taking the upgrade out, and then put everything else (everything in your inventory except the upgrade, and everything your character has equipped, like rad suit, fins) in lockers, and then, in the console, put
    clearinventory
    
    .

    To use the console, Press F3, then F8 (to get the mouse) - uncheck "disable console", then press F8, then F3 to close the windows. You may have to toggle F3 a few times to get the console open (open console with Enter key after enabling it).

    Does erasing the perimeter defense system fix the lag?
