Pilot froze in place

Griffin got stuck in his start box and was forced from high alt to low alt. He showed up as Whitebread and after clicking on him a few times, a different names came up like Topo (below) and Wedge - then back to Whitebread.
I had started all 8 of my pilots in the Northeast corner. Griffin was stuck there the whole Mission.
(Also.. the red 'targeted' circle doesn't always show up on friendly pilots who've been fired on.)
I'm keepin' you guys busy enough for the night. [:D]

This happens rarely (I repeated it) if you zoom through the game TOO quickly when moving. Especially when the pilots bunch up in a sector. It's rare, but its due to the way the engine is designed and the limitations of the engine. If you play at a decent (but not Speed Racer) pace, it never has happened and the game works fine.

This still happens. I wasn't really clicking the pilot any faster than the others... But it seems to always happen with the last pilot to be moved. At least for me and also seems to happen most if not always when in the upper corner entry quandrant. So maybe that means something...
