Empire of the Hand emergency retreat broken?

I'm referring to the ship ability, using 2.25.  I won a space battle, but for some reason nothing happened, sent fighters to hunt for enemies and they found nothing. After about 10 mins I said screw it and told all my units to emergency retreat instead of auto resolve, because I've had issues with auto resolving the battle when this has happened before and suddenly lose 8 capitals.  I hadn't lost a single ship in the battle, but afterwards I have lost my entire fleet I told to emergency retreat.  Am I doing something wrong?

No. Technically, the emergency retreat does kill all your ships, so they will be counted as losses on the battle summary and they won't typically return to the galactic map where you'd expect a retreating fleet to. Instead, you should get a text prompt in the upper left telling you your units have retreated to a random planet you own, where you'll be able to find them.

Thank you, you are correct. I was sad because I thought I lost Thrawn, but lo an behold he pops up awhile later with the fleet.
