Resource question
SITUATION: Say you are in a simutaneous game and you have storage space for 50000 of each resource. You are making 20000 minerals (NET gain, after deducting expenses) a turn. Maintenance and build queues cost you 40000 minerals a turn. Assume that you currently have 50000 minerals in the bank (ie storage fully filled).
QUESTION: If you use the resource converter and convert 20000 minerals to the other two types of resources, would you go bankrupt next turn (the classic cash flow problem)? Does the game give you the resources first THEN deduct maintenance/queue (bad), the other way around (bad), or deduct the costs from the sum of mineral in stock + income (good)?
