We're on turn 100+, (3 player 4or5 AI's - I'm playing Human) I'm trying to send out fleets to colonize & survey systems beyond my frontier.
EX_1: I've built a colonizing fleet but can't form the fleet (I have plenty of admirals) there's is a fleet already present in the system it's performing supply runs to a developing system. Can NOT form fleet
EX_2: Trying to send survey & colony ships from developed systems to go get planets beyond the frontier. The fleets that are in systems doing tasks "block" my fleets from passing through my systems!
One of my plans is; I have a couple of construction fleets ready to build Naval Station in the systems, to boost fleet command points so the fleet can pass through. As above, my construction fleets are NOT able to move into those systems!!!! I have (2) TWO systems that have NO fleets in them, those systems are the ONLY systems that show up in the list of places to move to...
Another plan; Is to wait until the blocking system are finished with their tasks and either move them into tasks in "new" systems or deconstruct them and the other fleets continue exploring & colonizing (I have a couple problems with this plan) The WAIT time, the systems are in the 200+ to 400+ environment range to develop down... And IF I deconstruct the fleets then I have to build others to replace them - which is MORE TIME I can't use to explore & colonize!!!
So,my fleets are NOT able to PASS through my systems because my fleets are already present... I've also waited until the fleets are resupplying (out of the affected systems) then tried to move the new fleets through, NO SUCCESS.
Thanks for your time
