Hello, I tried to move the Ghosts flagship from Mallice to Creuss, but the bot told me it needed 3 movement to get there, therefore not recognizing its in-built delta wormhole.
Not a big deal, but I thought I'd report it.

Here's the message:

Tactical Action in system bl (Creuss - Creuss):
From system tl (Mallice - Nexus) (3 tiles away)
:Ghost: moved 1 flagship (distance exceeds move value (3 > 2), used Gravity Drive) (gravity rifts along a path could add +1 movement if used)

I did some testing and found that when moving another ship from the flagship system back home, it correctly recognises that they're adjacent, but when the flagship itself is moved, it does not. So the cause of the problem seems to be that the bot moves the flagship, and then calculates the distance. Since at that point, the Nexus no longer contains a Delta wormhole, the bot uses the slow path. Not sure what the easiest way to fix this would be. Maybe remember the flagship system at the start of every action?
