Vasari Phase Stabilizer Problems

I'm having a problem with Phase Stabilizers.  A lot of times, when I build one in a gravity well, ships already in that gravity well can't jump out of it to other Phase Stabilizers, even though ships in other gravity wells can jump in.  This happens fairly consistently.

Another, possibly separate problem is that abilities which create Phase Stabilizers--Antorak Marauder's and Orkulus Starbase's Stabilize Phase Space ability--sometimes don't seem to register.  The planet will say it has a Phase Stabilizer, but instead of using it, ships in both that gravity well and others will jump the long way 'round instead.

Finally, I can't seem to get ships to use the Orkulus's Phase Stabilizer either into or out of a star's gravity well.

And to pre-empt the inevitable question, yes, I'm doing this all within the same star system.

Phase stabilizers sometimes take a while to go active, even after it says "phase node" in the system description.  I also saw a problem a couple days ago where my planet got bombed, and I recolonized it, and the in system phase stabilizer stopped working for a bit AFTER I recolonized the planet, forcing my ships to have to take the "long path" to a nearby system.  It started working again after a few minutes though.

If you find a reproducible bug, like the one way phase jumping you mentioned, you should save the game and send it to the developers to examine.

Yes, it happens on the newest colony and takes a few minutes to register. It's odd that way. If you colonize a new planet before the last one registers, it will start working immediately and the new one will have a repeat :P This one's been known for a while, but it'd still be good to send over a save that's set up to easily reproduce it.

Yet another thread about it ;p

Heh.  If only I'd searched the forums more thoroughly.

That pretty much follows what I've noticed.  Any idea what's up with the Phase Stabilizers in star gravity wells, or is that one just me?
