Steps to Reproduce

1. Place light switches right by the door.
2. Some other items, like computers, cause this too.

Explanation

This is a REALLY confusing and difficult bug to explain, but I'll try my best. For some reason, when placing light switches anywhere from 1-2 tiles away from a door it causes immense lag when you turn your camera towards them, in some cases it has crashed my game. I don't understand why it's doing this and by temporarily fixing it, I have to move them to random far away locations which makes it pretty inconvenient to use. And I say temporarily because the spots I put them in that worked will eventually break and also cause lag. I was able to find a Reddit article with some people experiencing the same issues when entering doors or placing light switches THREE years ago. typing /console in the chat worked and I was able to scroll down and figure out that the light switch was the object causing the lag. This is a really niche bug and I've NEVER had this issue before on any of my other lots so I don't have high hopes that you'll be able to replicate it. And it wasn't only lagging me, my friends also completely froze when they were near it. Hopefully you can figure out a fix, thanks! (Ignore the video quality, it's smooth in game but for some reason has very low FPS on the video. The lagging from the light switches though is real.)
