weird behavior in unobserved ships

from GalCiv3 Forums

when sending a survey ship through a wormhole and allowing them to return to your controlled space unobserved they act weirdly often skipping sections of space and leaving unexplored areas

what I mean is when I am not directly watching them move as in I have the screen centered on another part of the map. I think the behavior is caused by the fact that ships tend to just teleport to their destination when they are off the screen.

It does this with stock ships and it also does this with ships on long right-click auto paths.  I have not seen a pattern.  It does seem to be registered as uncovered fog, and one time I had it fill in after a reload of the game.
