I found a trade bug. I don't know if it's new, but AI civs will sell the farm for a working hyperspace gate in your territory. I had the idea to give someone else a hypergate so they would connect it to their network and the trade value maxed out. They will literally give every starbase, tech, ship, resource, and coin they have. No colonies at least! Haha. The space gate trick works well though, not sure if intended.
