[0.18.27] Robot movement 'skipping'

I am not sure how long this bug has existed but robots when flying overhead, instead of moving at a smooth pace all 'skip' at the same spot in certain areas of a map.

Please see the youtube video I uploaded below demonstrating the bug:

Watch the robots moving downwards from the top right-hand corner down to the bottom left-hand corner and the skip occurs around 1/5 of the way down.

Thanks devs for looking into this!

Thanks for the report. That's known and won't be changed. It takes extra RAM to prevent this issue and isn't realistically breaking anything.

Thanks for the reply. Just curious, but what is the technical answer for the result of this bug? Is it because it is caused in between map segments or the like and it would require loading more into RAM to fix this issue?
