Enemy Fleet bypassing yours
Been playing as the CIS and I have Coruscant pretty much surrounded with some rather powerful fleets. Thus thinking that the planets behind my front line is secure. But suddenly I get a message saying Enemy Fleet approaching. I pause the game and read that the planet about to be invaded is one that the enemy fleet would have to travel past my blockade before reaching it. Thinking this is a Stealth team, I quickly send a fleet to enforce the undefended planet, but the enemy is made of 7 capital ships and a handful of corvettes. How did they get past my front lines?

All lanes are not shown, only trade routes afaik. Which planet did the fleet attack and where did it travel from?

I experienced this before too, but after having the entire map revealed and seeing all the enemy forces and their moves it seems like most of their travels are legit but use sneaky lanes that are rarely used because trade routes are faster, so you automatically never use them.

The only possible culprit is Coruscant, still held by the Republic. Around it I have fleets in orbit around Foerost, Corellia, Anaxes, Corulag and Alderaan. The first attack came at Cardia. After I loaded the savepoint made a minute before the battle, I pulled an extra fleet to orbit that planet. And shortly after, the attack changed to strike at Kuat instead.

pretty sure that they can make that distance.... without the hyperspace routes

also unless there was an update i think your playing a submod

I checked and there is a route between Kuat and Coruscant.

EDIT: Maybe it's more correct to say that most core-worlds are so close together that they can travel from each other without lanes.

Thanks a bunch, guys. I'll be sure to fortify all planets next playthrough

Question, Deckrex mentioned the word "submod"... does the mod update itself or do I have to do something to make sure I have the latest version.

Youre not playing this mod. You got a submod, someone took RaW, made some edits and published it. Has nothing to do with the RaW dev team though.
