The closest shipyard was not selected to build a colony ship

Paradox Launcher

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Colony ship in question is highlighted showing its destination. It will drive right past my other ship yard on its way to the planet of choice. While I accept there is always the possibility of doing upgrades to a nearby fleet I have been at peace since day one so I am very lazy in doing them.

Just look at that path... it probably took it a game year to get from one shipyard to the other.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
using the build colony button and this happened but I did not notice until I clicked it.

Hello!

Thank you for the report!
Currently the system is set up to look for the closest shipyard in a straight line, it does not take the amount of jumps into consideration, so currently this is working as designed. This is however valid feedback and we might look into the issue in the future.
