I've come across something weird in the game I'm in, a player who I virtually killed off stopped submitting with a few planets left that I am now clearing, one of those planets is on the edge of my pen scan range and he has ISB so my scanners can't see it's Spacedock but I know it's there since I sent one of the FFs I was using to sweep the mines around it in and it was destroyed in a battle with it, the starbase only showed up in the battle report, when clicking the planet it didn't show up though even though it was not destroyed, that seemed weird enough but for this turn I sent another FF with none/none/disengage orders so it wouldn't be destroyed by the starbase but even though the ship is orbiting the planet the starbase is still not showing up.
Unless I have completely missed something then if there is a ship in orbit it should always show the starbase so I'm very confused as to where it's disappeared to. Has anybody else ever seen it happen before or can come up with an explanation of why it isn't showing. No orders have been given so the base couldn't have been deleted, and it hasn't been destroyed. I'm sending armed ships with my bombers to take it out but if I hadn't already lost the previous FF I would have assumed there was none there and not bothered sending the armed ships which would have added 3 years to me taking the planet given I'd have had to gate some to the nearest planet and then there would have been a 2 year trip for them to then get there.
