To me this is the single most annoying thing aside from not being able to post finished games to the metaverse at this point.
It completely messes up an operation in progress if I get a ship going off in the wrong direction or a turn processed before I am finished moving due to the positioning of those two buttons.
Please shrink them just a bit so there is a small buffer of 5-10 pixels between these buttons (or at least their "hot" regions) and the minimap.
