During negotiations with several minor races who have found themselves being crushed by their larger neighbors, I gave some of them a few older ship designs I had in my inventory in an attempt to help them stave off total destruction (their enemy is also mine). Yet, these wonderful gifts are all still sitting in my space where they were originally, even though they have been transfered out of my control. it's my impression that the game engine simply doesn't know what to do with these ships. Is this a bug or have these minor races lied to me about their impending doom just to steal ships from me?
