I'm playing my first game under 1.04, with auto ship construction disabled and my construction ships automated. Suddenly there is a message, 'Escort 007 has been built'. I didn't think too much of it. Then an exploration ship got built. I KNEW I didn't build that, I have enough of those ships. So I looked. It was leaving one of my construction ships.

???

I'm pretty sure that was impossible before 1.03, and I didn't see anything about that in the patch notes.

Please, let this be a bug. 'Control manually' should do what it says on the tin.

Your automated constructor found one of your damaged and stranded ships and repaired it. There is no message like 'ship was repaired', but instead you get 'ship completed/build'.

Ah, ok.  Thanks, funny I never noticed that before.

Devs, perhaps there is a way to change the message to 'ship repaired'?  I can't be the only one confused by this.
