jump point won't stay in place

Sep 30, 2008 WarSong link
accepted escort mission
launched
jump point beyond asteroids, nothing unusual
re docked before leaving the system
re launched
jump point is now located inside the station's structure, could not jump from "activate"
ignored, completed mission

reproduced issue at new location, went the same as above.

The jumppoint is just a suggested jumppoint. You do not have to be at that exact location to jump. However, it shouldn't be put at a station's location.

Aye, the jump point is only a suggestion, but when it comes to the escort missions, the convoy you're supposed to escort is following the suggested jump point when launching from the station when this does occur. Coincidently, the convoy gets "stuck" because it is going to this suggested jump point that is inside or at the station, and there for, they are not able to perform jump to next sector due to the fact they are not at least 3,000m from large objects. I had this happen in Dau, but can't remember the sector and station. I jumped out of sector and back in again, and I even tried redocking and relaunching from station to no avail. I had to abort the escort mission as the convoy would never move.

I can confirm this bug.

1) Take an escort mission
2) Launch
3) Dock back
4) Launch again
