Trade route question.

from Stardock Forums
Here's a minor strategy question: Does the income from trade routes go into the origin planet's cash supply, or into your Empire's main fund? In other words, if, say, Earth is the origin of four trade routes, is the income from those routes modified by econ-enhancers on Earth (banking centers, etc.), or just those that affect your entire empire (tech advances)?

The money goes to your empire income, but the economic modifiers on both trade route planets (yours and the civilization you're trading with) increases that income. So, trade routes are best done from your economic capital to your trading partners economic capital (although if you're going to use SB upgrades to increase your trade route income there are reasons not to do this). I'd suggest using the forum search function with the term "trade" as there are a number of threads on this topic.
