Mining Starbase Income/Bonuses

Hello All

 

I am fairly new to this game (been playing for three days) and have what is, I hope, a simple question.  I like to know everything about where my money and production are both coming from and going.  For the most part this is served by the various screens and (occasionally unreliable) mouse over breakdowns.  I also can clearly see the bonuses from mining bases in the appropriate planets details screen.

One thing I cannot fin is where the income/bonuses from mining starbases are displayed.  I am in the second episode of the first scenario and have numerous mining starbases.  I can see that they are supposed to be producing, but I can find their contribution listed anywhere (not on my planets, or in my economy screen or even in my empire stats.  I see the maintenance cost, but not the output (why they would not show both in the same place I do not know).

 

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

You can see the bonuses in the details of the starbase (just double-click on the base). The bonuses themselves increase your racial abilities (you can see them in the Civilization Manager under Stats & Graphs). For example, you start the game with a +10% bonus to your Economics ability. You later build a mining starbase on a economic resource. This will increase your Economics ability to +15% (10% plus the 5% from the mining starbase).
