My engineering staff appears to have a small problem

Just got my first Terror Stars online about two game weeks ago. They don't appear to move?

Is there something, obvious or less than obvious I'm missing about using terror stars? I right click and it sits there, no 'flight plan', nothing. I've researched all five steps, using the Altarian tech tree, waited a couple weeks for any movement points to refresh, the terror star says [5/5] on the modules, I've threatened the lives of my minions and and screamed "Why am I surrounded by FOOLS!"and tried to jump start it from a battleship, and and the Terror star helpdesk has me on hold so I've kinda run out of ideas.

This game was started on version 1.95b, and I am running 2.00, so conceivably it may be a save game incompatibility, but if so this is the first one I've run across so I'm more inclined to suspect I'm missing something obvious - any ideas appreciated? Or shall I sell it off to J'nans new and used precursor Rangers and cut my losses?

Thanks - Jonnan
