[.25 Bug] Gameplay oddity with sovereign movements

from Elemental Forums

Sometimes when I've set a destination for my sovereign that will take several moves, and I'm just hitting enter for next turn and watching him move, he won't move.  Then on the next turn he'll move two squares.  I can never tell when it's going to happen, but it's usually when a popup message has appeared about the completion of an improvement in one of my towns.  I've seen it at least a dozen times now.  I don't recall seeing it on earlier betas.

I've noticed this sometimes also usually when I'm speeding through turns. Hadn't confirmed if it was just animation lag or what (being able to save games would be really nice to revisit/recreate these!)

This is still happening on .255.

I also noticed this.  It seems to happen more when the sovereign is near a city.  I couldn't get him to move at all and he didn't catch up later.  Sometimes he would move only a half square.  Seems he could be caught up in the city build small squares.  When I went in and only set a move of 1 square away, I was able to move him like that away from the city and then it seemed the longer move order would work after I was several squares clear of the city.
