COULD be yet another mechanic that I just don't know about, but for a while now my interceptors (set to Aegis Pattern or Screening Swarm) just seem to 'hang out' and refuse to reenter the ship after their flight plan is over. This only happens when I'm at range 1 and constantly boarding. If interceptors or bombers or shuttles finish their flight plants after they attack the enemy ship they fly back to my ship and land no problem, it is only with interceptors set on defensive flight plans that I notice this.

At range 3 (roughly turn 2), send out interceptors on defensive flight plan. fly closer
at range 2 my shuttles always seem to have this turn as the turn they board. fly closer
(as a side note. at range 2 if I am successful on both my boarding roll AND my capital ship range change, after crew combat I am awarded the boarding skills of my ENTIRE crew as if I was already range 1. intentional?)
from range 1, which is roughly turn 4 onwards, the interceptors refuse to land ONLY if I also boarded that turn. They will land if I refuse to board.

Yes, range change happens before boarding so that is intentional.
At this point, you are boarding every turn?

Yes. I'm weaponless except for my fighters and my combat crew, so I board to win.

Ok, sounds like that must be the issue. Will investigate.
