ok so.....im the type that usually plays a map as big as i can get it. im also the type that has learned you are never alone on a star.I like to go to another star, one uninhabited and flourish there b4 a universal takeover, but i decided to try to stand my ground and take what was allready given.....OOPSIES....screwed allready....small assaults on my western border has prompted me to expand westward, 1 of every cap, 1 titan, 25 frigates....a minor defence/offence force. to my dismay, they have a fully decked out starbase and huge lot of hangars, 2 minutes into the assault i come to realize i was not properly ready to deal with the sizeable defence, and i pull back.

Heres where the bug happens....

my forces that were combined into 1 singular fleet and its commander were pulled back to regroup at home base....but whats this.....2 cap ships and 25 frigates are listed still in the hostile sector....at....100%hp?????? *zoom in* i see no friendly ships there...check fleet manifest...-2 cap ships and 25 frigates....but yet they are listed in perfect health in hostile sector....H.U.D reports i still have 1 of every cap on the field and 25 frigates.....ok ill just disband and reform. 2 caps 25 frigs still hostile sector...sent command to reform at home base...all ships make a dash tward the hostile sector instead of home base, and to all purposes i cannot singularly find the 2 missing cap ships and 25 frigates, but im still tapped as far as capacity and crew and still listed in my care....ok i just reload last save.....could not be recreated....
