Universe Map

Hows the universe map's colouring work exactly? it doesnt seem to work properly from what i believed it to do.

An example from my game; the map shows a system as owned by the Cue Cappa though they only have 1 planet with 2 satallites, while the Abidon Enclave and Ukra-Tal have 6 planets each and 1 ship each. Surely somethings wrong with this. several other systems have the same thing, some even sillyer such as one i just found; 7 cue cappa planets, 1 Eee planet, and 1 Xiati ship, the systems marked as Xiati owned, heck half my map is red from Xiati and Jraener. Its very frustrating, and makes the colour coding almost useless, im finding it only usefull for keeping track of my own systems and nebulae/blackholes for making into Rings and Spheres at a later date.

thanks in advance
