Gates - Somewhat related to capitals

First off, I for one like the intent of changing the Jump drive system but I think we all know the blog vs what will be implemented will change a bit. But this post is not about that! This is about the Capitals jumping thru gates!

Awesome change, about damn time. However, there are 2 problems. A group of caps warping to the gate and bumping one another, and the other is those same caps jumping thru and bumping another when they start aligning.

Greyscale said someone was working on the warp mechanics, so I am not worried about that.

But what about jumping and aligning? Is the 12.5KM or whatever the actual range is really fine? If it turns out to be a problem then the best thing I can think of is making so you appear at a random point in that radius, and not on the surface of the sphere. This would, of course affect all ships.

Thoughts?

Edit: I just realized one problem - burning back to gate would be massively buffed.
