Transports Population
...There's a pack of about half a dozen small transports that keep departing from Bre'el V en route to Taleed Beta system...Perhaps destinations should be checked against fuel supply before deciding to go there.

The thing is that this is how it is suppose to work...But for the most part I just set transports to auto and let the AI worry about them.

I guess I was unclear: The AI transport minister is sending transports on impossible missions. The entire fleet of transports are stuck in a loop. Each ship gets low on gas, and is told to go home, which was supposed to be how it works.
But while the first ship is returning for gas, another ship is ordered to do the impossible mission. In this way, all the transports have accidentally gathered together to fail at doing the job. It's a hole the fleet falls into, like lemmings jumping off a cliff. Emergent behavior at it's worst.
This probably means that enemy ships are doing the same thing; being ordered to go places they cannot reach.
