trade goods and galactic wonders

hi everyone. i have a few questions about galactic wonders and trade goods for the latest patch.

1) after buying a trade good, does my civilization get the bonuses right away? or do i have to capture the planet first? i believe i got the diplo trans bonus after buying only, but i can't remember. and i don't feel like going to war over aphrodisiac yet

2) playing around, i think i saw building wonders on bonus tiles (like omega research on a research tile), their effects do not stack? can anyone confirm or reject this?

thanks for any help you players might have.

You only need to trade to get a trade good. No invasion necessary.

No bonus for building galactic wonders on bonus tiles.

1. The official behavior is that you get the bonus right away when you buy it in the diplomacy screen. As far as I know this works... haven't seen anything to make me question it. Some bonuses may only start at the beginning of the next turn (I've noticed this with other bonuses, not sure about trade goods).

You can trade it to others if and only if you control the building, though.

2. Bonus tiles don't affect super projects or wonders. Manufacturing bonus tiles don't affect manufacturing capitals, only factories. There's no reason to build a wonder or super project on a tile except if you need a tile and don't care about the bonus (influence and farming come to mind. I have to really strain to imagine a situation where I'd build anything other than a factory on a manufacturing bonus or a research lab on a research bonus.)
