GFIGGIN#%*#(Q@$*@$&@^*%%..... How are people going to manage wide, far-flung empires when the facility negative income costs aren't tallied in the budget window?!? Has anyone talked to Aaron about this?

Its a new problem. The income from those abilities is never reported, positive or negative. It is added, just not tallied anywhere.

really? i thought it was a problem as far back as the original P&N mod that had resource ships. This is just a slightly different variation on the same problem.

Those resource ships were made before the ability we are talking about was added to the game.

The original P&N is ancient... 2001 or so.
Those resource ships used negative maintenance to gather resources, and that does show up in the maintenance column of your budget
