Fixed Power grid CTD in Sanctuary, every settlement

Hi folks - I'm not sure this is really Sims Settlements related, as your mod seems to be better written and supported than the base game itself, but would you be willing to look at a save file from Outpost Zimonja and see if anything jumps out?

I should warn you that I made pretty much every rookie mistake - uninstalling mods, upgrading the base game, F4SE and UFO4P, and other mods including Sims Settlements before I knew better. Argh!

While I've done what I can to minimize these issues (approaching settlements on foot, dialing down performance options related to Sims Settlements such as animations and visitors, optimizing fast travel points as far away from the workbench as possible & facing away from the settlements, waiting for scripts to complete before moving, etc) I still experience CTDs in every settlement shortly after arriving, if I spend too much time in the settlement, or shortly after leaving.

The reason I suspect this may be related to a power grid bug is that the issue became pronounced in Sanctuary when approaching a spotlight that should have been powered, causing an immediate CTD. I was eventually able to scrap all spotlights in the settlement, and Sanctuary is one of my most stable settlements now, excluding Mechanist Lair and Home Plate, which never crash.

I don't experience game crashes anywhere in the game other than my settlements.

I'm unable to include a link to my save file because I'm new here -it has 62 unattached instances, but I've avoided monkeying with it using Fallrim Tools, because I don't really know what I'm doing. I can provide the link if someone is willing to take a look at it.

Thank you in advance!
