The stock script for population transports worked perfectly fine in 1.44 from what I could see. I spaced the inhabitants of one of those planets and built a Pop.Transport on the other. It filled up with population and headed for the right planet at once. Well, actually there was one delay; it refused to move the same time that it had either loaded or unloaded, so it sort of wasted some movement points, but that's probably easily fixed.
