Help a N00b with Space Bases

[Cyclop]

Lets not forget that a Starbase or any base with mining bots can help pad your resource influx each turn. I usually create a Base Ship Yard that then creates resource bases that usually have an output between 5K-30k+ a turn for specific resources. It takes more than 10-15 turns to build a good asteroid mining farm but once that supplemental income starts coming in, I found it to make a HUGE difference that has pushed me over the edge. AND none of the resources gained by mining given to any of trade treaty.
