Extra Turn? WTF?

What is the deal

Ok, this happens to me on all my games, and I am really getting sick of it; I push the end turn button, and instead of advancing my research, filling my treasury, and granting movement points, all I get is more moves for my ships. There have been times where I was depending on getting a certain technology the next turn to advance my strategic position, but my research bar stays unchanged, and grants my and the AI more movement points, and the bad guys are able to screw me over because I lack a certain Tech.

Is this a bug? If so, why hasn't it been fixed by now, I've been experiencing it since release, and something like this should have been fixed already. If it isn't a bug, and is intended, or can be toggled in the options menu, feel free to call me an idiot and proceed to flame this thread into oblivion.

Thanks

Your turn doesn't actually end when you press the turn button... It ends when ALL ships have finished moving and have used up their moves.

and also, if you have just loaded a game, then it will just "skip" that turns research- i do not know about ship building and cash.
but i do know it will be adressed in v1.2

Ok, calm down. Everyone- that's you AND THE AI- lose production/research the first turn after you load a game. So if you lag in tech, it's not because of this due to the fact that on the empty turn the AI gets nothing either.
