Starbases don't always grab resources within their area of control

from GalCiv4 Forums

As the title says. This only seems to happen when you have a resource outside of the AoC, but then add a module to the starbase to increase it's range. This same game I had one starbase which updated correctly after 1 turn. The other one, near my homeworld never updated.

Notice there is 1 Promethium, and 2 Thulium within the AoC of the starbase.

 

This is the report from the starbase, which it only shows 1 Thulium.

 

Here is the save

One thing to note is that the starbase which did correctly update once adding the module to extend the range, is that the resources were all the same (Promethion).

That thullium wasn't available to the starbase when its range expanded because it was already being mined by another starbase.

Ahh yes, I think you're right. I had an economic SB nearby, which must have grabbed it.

So to be clear, is this still an issue?

That is the one that grabbed it.

No, I just forgot other SB types can mine resources.
