fighter resupply

I have another fighter resupply question.
Does fleeting fighters with another group of fighters cause them to share their supplies?

In a PBW game, 1 fighter group had no supplies. I send a second fighter group to them, and they both join the one fleet. I order them to move back to my Planet, expecting them to move 1 space the first turn and then full movement back to the planet. 3 turns later I check on them only to find out they have moved 3 spaces, with 1 fighter group still with no supplies.

I don't have a full answer, but I do know that there is a problem (bug?) with fleeting fighters. Fleeting fighters with ships will quickly suck down the supplies of the fleet so don't do this. Fleeting fighters with other fighters seems to drain supplies of some of the fighter Groups faster but I haven't tested this to prove it.

Slick.
