Can Not Board Most of the Other Ships in My Fleet

I can not dock to several of the ships in my fleet. I have things I left on the Razorleaf that I would like to pick up and it makes it very difficult. Oddly, it wouldn’t matter if I didn’t want to retrieve them so I could remove effects from them using another of your mods. Changing it back to my home ship royally screws up the crew assignments as there are unnamed crew members who tend to disappear in the process. Indeed, when I tried it I couldn’t even reassign Amelia Earhart back as pilot. I ended up going back to a prior game save. I can’t even communicate with the other ships as my ship just wants to target them.
 
Hi there, which platform are you playing on? Could you please share your modlist with us?

Being unable to dock with fleet ships is an engine problem - the exact cause hasn't been identified, but it seems to occur more frequently after ships take damage in combat. We have forwarded this on to Bethesda and are awaiting further support. Usually this is a temporary state.

I'm not sure I follow with regards to your crew assignment issues - could you please provide some reproduction steps?
 
I am playing on PC. I can upload a dx diag report later today when I am at my PC it that will help. When I first started having this problem I was using the mods Robin Locke UC Fly Girl, Watchtower, and The New Crew. This is when I first found the problem. I have isolated it down to two ships I can not board or talk to. (I probably should have gone through all the ships before posting so I apologize for not doing that.) Note these ships follow my ship attack the ships I attack and drop the ordnance I request, I just can not talk to or board them. One is a ship I captured from Elliptic and the other is the Razorleaf. The problem is that I want to retrieve some items that were stored on the Razorleaf.

The second part of the problem is that if I switch home ships to the Razorleaf it then messes up the crew assignments. My current home ships, a modified Narwhal, has a crew of 9. This displaces all of the Razorleaf’s crew and the unnamed crew members lose their assignments which can cause them to disappear when I transfer back because you can’t have an unnamed crew member without being assigned to a ship.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Approach ship in question
2. Press key assigned to open a channel to talk to the ship
3. Instead of trying to communicate it indicates it is attempting to lock target
4. Approach within 500 meters and there is no key indicated to initiate docking
5. Instead of docking the targeting screen come up showing the systems on the ship I can attack

Expected: Be able to dock and board normally
Resist: Only able to attack my own ship and can not retrieve the items I want
Note: Wrks ok with other ships in my fleet.
