Well, it does say "Arrival on Map at 21,3 in 1 days"... so the error happened prior to the resolution of the turn IMO. What did the mouseover say on the turn before?

I just loaded my latest turn and was shocked to see half a dozen destroyers ravaged by the KB off the coast of Oman. This was shocking, as these destroyers were about to exit the Panama worm hole near the west coast.
Details:
these ships were headed to Panama. One day off the map I ordered them to San Diego (which would have turned them around). This turn they exited the Aden wormhole.

In my PBEMs, and in my ads, I have said that the only thing the code allows that I will never do is spin a TF in a wormhole. Some players (CR) have done it and gotten away with it. Some have had to ask Michael to intervene in the save file to correct the TF going into the Twilight Zone. As has been said here and elsewhere, the off-map code processes do not use regular x,y math. They're their own abstracted algorithms.

There maybe ought to be an error trap to prevent players from spinning there, but there isn't. So just say no.
