Navy stuck and moves slow

[iniquitatem in interitum]

This has happened three times now and It's getting very frustrating. My navy is stronger yet, the opponent is able to move literally 6x faster and I get stuck traveling 4 points behind. I haven't played for a while but, did they nerf worm holes to make them not worth it? I'm so confused why the AI is able to move so much faster. When I'm not engaging another empire I move at a much faster speed. Any ideas wtf is happening?

Ships in combat move more slowly than ships out of combat, be design. Or do you mean something else when you say "engaging another empire"?

Has the problem ever not happened? If so, how long ago did it start? Did it start after the game patched, or after you installed a mod? If so, what patch or mod triggered the problem?

Talking about travel distance. Like X days to warp, when I send my navy to other systems with hostile entities this doesn't happen and they move at a reasonable pace.

I do not remember having this problem and I've been playing off/on since around release. I first noticed it about a month or two ago when my ships seemed dead in the water while traveling between systems when the AI was moving MUCH faster between systems. I have no mods on and am playing ironman and I wouldn't be able to point out which specific patch triggered the issue. That's why I came here to try to find more information on why it's happening.
