Just wondering from where comes the +20k income bonus which always happen some years after game start.



The screen above is very early after a game start. I have only built a spaceport, and I start exploring my system. I have followed each freighter to see if maybe one of them was carrying something of value, but no. So I wonder : "where does that nice income bonus come from?"

You get some bonus income from building your starbase, first ship and first mine as I've understood it. I usually live on the bonus income for the first years, as pirates takes all my regular money

Star ports will always generate bonus income from incoming trading ships (Freighters) as well.

It is when the private sector buys from you, i.e. uses your spaceport to build a freighter. So, if your private sector is growing you will see much more bonus income. You can usually see a leap in your bonus income when you colonize a new planet or build a new spaceport or get a trade deal because your private sector buys more ships then.

I believe Resort Base income is Bonus income as well since it tends to come in sporadically.
