How can I tell if racial bonuses are really working?
One thing I notice is that if I bump up, say, my race's ship defence ability (10 percent, 15 percent, whatever) it never does show up in-game under the racial abilities when you right-click a ship to view its stats. It of course shows bonuses from on-board items such as ECM and some of the other racial bonuses but not such things as attack or defence bonuses (by race).
Should I just take it on faith that these bonuses are indeed active during combat?

No. It should show them under the "Abilities" tab for your ship, as "Racial Trait: +3% to Ship Attack" etc.

That's just it--the abilities I supposedly have don't show in that tab. (Does it have anything to do with the fact I'm playing a TDM game vs. computer opponents?)

It shouldn't. Post the savegame file?

Sounds to me like you really don't have the abilities you think you bought, for whatever reason.

You could check what your values actually are by saving your empire, then editing that .emp file in Game Setup/Players.
