Yet another order of events detail question |

Within the single item "Waypoint zero unload tasks", many players could be unloading at many different planets throughout the galaxy. In what order do these take place? (And same question for waypoint one.)
I could imagine that they could take place in the order of the planets in the xy file (e.g. left to right), or in random planet order. At any given planet, I know loading is in random player order (so you have a random winner in the race to load minerals) and I know that multiple invasions at the same planet at the same time can yield confusing results, but ignore that - I'm just asking in what planet order the unload tasks are run.
Thanks in advance!

First manual loads/unloads happen, I'm pretty sure it's random by player, then in order they were done while doing the orders.
Then waypoint 0 unloads happen, combat does not happen yet in fleet# order. I'm not sure about player# order, the only way I can think of to test it is to have two players both try to unload to a packet/salvage pile/3rd fleet, and see who gets to dump their cargo to it.
Then any combat/colonization from the manual or waypoint 0 unloads happens. (colonization is treated as combat I think)
Then waypoint 0 loads happen in fleet # order. I'm not sure about player#, but testing it should be easy, just have multiple races able to load from the same location.
The rest of the turn plays out, production, battles, etc.
Then waypoint 1 unloads happen, combat does not happen yet.
Then any combat/colonization from waypoint 1 unloads happens.
Then waypoint 0 loads happen.
