If all Garrison Accesses on a map have already been sealed (or otherwise rendered inoperable, i assume), and a cargo convoy is announced, the transfer corridor Swarmers will take one path, but the actual convoy will take another.
This has happened to me in two different runs.
The first time, the Convoy seemed to be moving towards the same exit, just taking a longer path, so i thought it was some issue with some wall being repaired,
but the second time it happened to me the Swarmers went to the top-right exit of the map while the Convoy went to the bottom-left exit. The Convoy wasn't interrupted either time.

I can try to provide a save file if necessary.

That's okay, no save necessary since this is a special case and Freighters use custom AI that is allowed to change its destination under some conditions, and it is separate from the advance Swarmers which are just running on a more standard routine and have no direct connection to the convoy. Their standard consistent behavior only really applies to active Garrisons.
