Torin Disappears and POD Door Not Interactive

[Spudland]

Love this mod but I'm having 2 issues in Last Watch. The 1st attempt I got through the dialog with Torin, said goodbye, went to try and find my ship, couldn't find the dock hatch anywhere, ended up back with Torin. He told me to get out, so I followed the quest marker and ended up at a black door with a small window in it. Searching the Internet later I found out this was the door to enter the POD. The problem is there was no way to interact with the door. I even tried setting down mines and blowing them up with a rifle! Then I ran back the other way and ended up with Torin again, and the game crashed. The next attempt, starting from when I first docked with Heimdall, I finished the dialog with Torin and he just disappears without activating the self-destruct! Once again, the only way out is the POD and the door still isn't interactive. Has anyone else had this issue? I'm playing with a very small load order (maybe 15-20) and Watchtower is at the bottom of the list.
