cursed population minister.

I am trying to improve proportions' AI but run into trouble with population transport.

If you are not familiar with proportions mod, the major difference is importance of population and much higher populations "weight" as a cargo.
Another difference is slow speed of transports.

So, I instructed AI to build population transports, but run into problems:

1) AI completely refuses to transfer population to domed colonies. This is a minor thing instandard game but a big problem in Proportions

2)Even worse: AI transport people only to planets two turns apart from homeworld !!!!
I consistanly witness this picture: AI load people, send ship to a planet in other system. If it does not reach colony in two game turns, transport turns back home
Even if target planet is only one hex apart and ship has plenty of supplies ( I made sure that each and every transport has enough supply storage for round trip).

So, is there a trick to make AI to transfer population given slow speed of transport ships ?
