are you sure, that it is possible to move the ships to that fleet?

there are only the fleets in the dropdownboxes, that reside in the same sectors

so maybe your fleet 3 is alone somewhere or it's on the way

yes, i looked in the database, and saw, your fleets are not at the same place. they are moving, but they are not syncronized anymore.

this happens easily, if you travel in subspace

just stop your fleets at the next target coords to reassemble

No you misunderstand me
In the drop down menus for all three fleets, there is only an option for fleet one or two.
I have never seen this before, even if I couldnt move the ships cos they were not in exactly the same place, the fleet three number was always there.

So its a new feature, I think I preferred the old your fleets are not in the same sector message

i did this to prevent unneessary traffic on the server. if you cannot move the fleets anyway, there is no use in trying it

this option was gone for a while, but now it all works, so you dont see the fleets anymore in the menu, that you cannot move any ships to or from anyway.
