zapping ship movement points

from Stardock Forums
I've been noticing that my ship (constructors) movement points are sometimes reset to zero (:(
1) upon leaving orbit has zero points
2) switching to another ship (had 2 points reset to zero)

I check debug and 2 possible messeages are:

Debug Message: Could not find animation titled Icon24Trans in model 0ecobase01 (PlayAnimation)

Debug Message: Could not find animation titled Icon in model 0ecobase04 (PlayAnimation)

This surfaced in 5b and contines in 5c.

Ted, when you switched to another ship, what key did you use?

The space bar will set moves to zero and go to the next ship. If you just want to find another ship, TAB is the correct key.

If this is not the case, can you give me a little more precise details?

I've had this and I just use the mouse.

ditto, using mouse. In fact I don't use keyboard at all.

here's a new one: a system built 3 constuctors same turn. I made a convoy and sent them to adjacent sector. convoy had 3 moves left so i broke convoy and started building new starbase. 2 of 3 constructors moved. 3rd had no moves left. Zapped again :(

Have found that this situation is not only affecting constructors, but all ships. Had exactly the same situation as Ted above but with Battleships - being sent to guard starbases. I lost the starbase that the Battleship that had no moves left had been allocated >:(
