AI issue: AI not building mining starbase at all

from Stardock Forums

Not sure what causes this behavior, but at Turn 71, the top power (a God-like AI) in the game only has 1 mining starbase, and is severely lacking mining resources. 

It has 10 free administrators to use, and plenty un-mined resources in its zone of control. 

Turn 1 and Turn 71 save files can be found here:

I hope Brad can shed some light on this.

EDIT: corrected typos in the file link

I just watched 160 turns of a soak game on normal with 15 factions. Most of them are building a lot of sb. The leader faction has 39 colonies and about 25 mining starbases. It may be related to being on godlike. They may get so many bonuses they don't need to mine for resources
