Recall Subordinates Ignores Ship Storage - WAI

I'm not sure if this is intended or not, but it seems an odd choice if it is. I have a fleet of Asgards and ordered them to travel to a distant Equipment Dock. They each have a fleet of three Falx ships and nine Kalis ships. Once the external docks were filled, they did not go to Storage leaving two Falx ships and six Kalis ships free. Ordering them to manually dock works as intended. Can provide testbed and specs as needed, but I don't know if this is intended behaviour or not.

Nota Bene: Wait, this might be relevant. Running the most recent beta, and it looks like Recall Subordinates is only enforced for the fleet leader so other capital ships do not dock escorts at all.

Nota Bene: Further examination suggests that Recall Subordinates *is* enforced for subordinates but it is a 'soft' enforcement. No utilisation of Ship Storage. I've been previously advised to keep Beta bug reports relevant to the beta so have put this report here.

Intended. The imperative for recall subordinates to take little time is more important than docking all subordinates (which can't be guaranteed in all cases anyway). The more important part of that logic is recalling drones so they aren't lost.

Okay. That's fair enough! But this logic needs to account with ships seeking shelter with the fleet in hostile environment sectors - I haven't tested for this, but ships need to autodock if there's a heavy radiation environment that only capital vessels can endure. Thanks for taking the time to clarify.
