Game crashes constantly (Possible problem with thermal vent generator)

This is my second save file, so I learned a few things from the first time. This time, I decided to build my base near one of the thermal vents in the shallows. The particular one I found is set kind of deep into the surface, so I had to swim into it a bit to build a thermal generator. I wanted to build thermal generators so I could have power all the time. I built one, had my base, everything was fine. Built my cyclops, some other things. Then I built a water extractor, so I decided to build a second thermal generator because of the increased power load. So I swam down, put another generator near the first, connected it, and went back up. Now, I noticed that my power max would fluctuate, which was weird, but I wrote it up to that generator maybe being on the border of the hot zone. I didn't think much of it. Then I took my cyclops out on some excursions. When I came back, I experienced severe lag once I was in visual range of the base. Initially it was infrequent. Now it is all the time. Here is exactly what happens:

I load the game.
I move around the base, some lag, but no crash yet.
Once I leave the base and am in the water, I can move for about five to ten seconds before the game goes unresponsive.
If I go to the vent, to try to deconstruct the generator, as soon as I can see the generator, the game crashes. Without fail. I can't even take a screen shot of what happens, it goes unresponsive so fast.

I wish I could say it was isolated to one machine, but it happens on my machine at home, and at the machines at my local LAN center. At this point, I'm just going to try to move my base and never come back to that location, if I can keep the game running. I'm going to try clearing my cache, since I just read about that. However, here is the link to my crash files, as requested by the devs. It's all rolled into one file.
