BUG- Station manager/blacklist - improved in upcoming update (1.2)

[atroces]

Periodically my station manager will try to send one of my TS to a blacklisted but friendly sector, say, for energy cells, but since it is blacklisted, my TS just sits in his home sector and does not go anywhere, because it won't path to the blacklisted sector. The other TS in that sector will gather energy cells from the surrounding sectors just fine, using the blacklist as intended. This seems to be a problem with the script for 'flying to the nearest source of energy cells' when the TS is depleted before jumping to the intended destination. This only happens when the TS is out of energy cells but is given a command to jump somewhere.

I have a temporary production chain in The Void Alpha, right next to the gate. I have two mines in that sector, but I have most of The Void sectors blacklisted, because it takes much longer to fly there than to jump to an energy sector. One of my mines TS insists on setting a path to The Void Beta, then floats stationary in space forever.

there will be some improvements to the station manager in 1.2
one of them being improved refuelling logic and better usage of the blacklist

I appreciate this! The temporary workaround I have is to set a jump refuel on the TS before I assign it, but if it is ever destroyed/replaced, or the station runs out of Ecells, then the behavior starts again. Glad to see a fix is in the works!
