Default Attack/Intercept Less Than Effective

I've noticed that using the Intercept/Attack command on an incoming enemy ship in a simultaneous is usually not very effective.

Without fail, my ships find themselves head to head with the enemy, and then in a crazy twist, they pass eachother without fighting. Then, of course, my ships are now behind the enemies and must chase them.

Losing worlds this way is rather painful. I do not inderstand why the program does not take this into account and start a combat. It's almost comical to think about.

I believe that it makes the Attack command fairly useless, unless you have more move and are chasing them from behind.

Has anyone else noticed this?
