Trade Route Questions

1. Does the PQ or population of planets matter in a trade route? i.e. Do you get more money from a trade route between 2 highly populated planets, 2 high PQ planets, or is the only thing that matters is distance?

2. Does the bonus from your starbase improvements also get credited to your trade partner or just to you?

3. Do trade routes that come from another Civ to you count against the total 10 routes you may have?

4. Partly related to question 2. Does the starbase bonus get credited to you aswell if it's a trade route another civ established with you? i.e. You didn't send the freighter, they did.

I may have other questonis but I can't remember them right now ;) Thanks for any info you may provide.

You want to trade between systems with high Pop and high Influence.

I believe just you, but I'm not 100% positive.

No.

I don't know that one.

2-4) only if you are allied with that player and the UP issue has come up and voted in the law that starbases give bonuses to both civs.
