Starbase bug?

Or am i missing something?

from GalCiv2 Forums

ok, i have a problem with building starbases over resources. THEY DONT WORK!

I mean influence, research, economy or morale starbases i build over the respective resource found does not show up on the planetary effect ( summary ) even though that planet is well inside the affected area. I have upgraded that SB over and over, it stand now at +25% research, but when i check the flasks there is no chance. I even destroyed it - no modification.

Wtf, is this a bug?

Thanks for any input you might have.

The area of effect on a resource starbase means little--the bonus they give adds to your global ability bonus, not to the local area. Were that the case, resources not near planets would be useless.

Oh, so you mean that SB i built over resources impact ALL my colonies?
Does that show up anywhere, can i check it in some screen?

I was wondering why the normal SB seemed to work, this might explain it..lol

You can see the overall effect in your Abilities screen. You can see the bonuses you get for all abilities there - fairly easy to see the effect - just look at it before and after building the resource base.
