It is unplayable when your ships cannot jump because they're waiting on their fighters / bombers to be retrieved, but those fighters / bombers can't catch up to the ship (or do so over the course of say 30-90 game-days per ship).

So instead of an "8s" jump time, we have 45 DAYS jump-time -- and all fleets become totally scattered as various members have fighters at various distances to wait for before they can jump!@#$@

If you get sufficiently fast engines + sufficiently fast jump-drives (quick to initiate) - you're screwed. Any ships you salvage that have this combo are screwed. I've been seeing this insane "jumping..." for eons in some ships since this game shipped - but only now figured it out!!!

Just don't initiate jump drive until the fighters / bombers have landed OR abandon them. But this LIMBO suuuuucccckkkkssss!!!!

We've been doing nothing but working on updates since release, but per the roadmap posted in this forum, the critical issues that have been preventing some customers playing at all have to come first.

With that said, we are planning on spending next week focused on gameplay issues so that those who have been able to play the game fully can also see some progress. Given that, the more saves we have showing key gameplay issues the better. We're aware of both issues with starfighters and fuel tankers that are negatively affecting fleet gameplay. If you have a save that reproduces what you described, please share it with us.

Currently as far as gameplay issues go, resolving the remaining fleet coordination issues is at the top of our list.
