Summary0023302: Crippled flagships should be able to fly through enemy force fields
DescriptionI just tried to assault the AI Homeworld. My fleet got wiped out, and then I couldn't get my flagship out because there were force field guardians covering the wormhole. They should be able to limp home no matter what.

I have some code changes that should achieve this, but can you give me a save where you're trapped on an AI planet like that? Helpful for testing to make sure I didn't miss something.

(I hope that works. Cleared and verified the game again but sometimes get weird errors regardless).

The save worked great, thank you.

For next version:

* Crippled units (i.e. player flagships) can now pass through enemy bubble shields and traverse wormholes covered by them, to avoid being stranded in hostile territory.

Noticed this issue is similar to one I opened recently, so hope you don't mind me dropping two other test cases! First one is strike fleet 1 stranded by a zombified forcefield frigate on Ghahamani, second is same fleet, but the culprit is a MK VII (immobile) forcefield unit on Eich.

Is this working ok now, in 2.117?
