What will happen when the turn is processed is thus:
- The ship warps and maps the system.
- The ship moves back through to the original system, and heads towards the second warppoint.
- If the second is close enough, you can explore both in one turn.

This is especially useful if the first unexplored system turns out to be a powerful variety of black hole... You ship will warp in, and back out before the pull of the hole can suck it down.

If the system is normal, with planets, you can use the turn replay to see what planets were colonized and what ships were where for the few days your ship was in the system.
SJ...where is this "turn replay"? fused
