help completing trade route chain

Hi sorry if this is the wrong forum, I'm a new sins player and I have two problems

I have trade depot and starbase with trade depot on dead asteroid "melanthios", however the white line doesn't go through it.

Also, I cannot build a starbase on antimatter fountain to make the chain longer.

Is this intended behaviour? Thanks for help in advance.

Yep, you also have a trade port at the star and that is what is shorting out the line. Recommend its removal to see if that will improve the trade income. And I don't think you can build anything at the AM fountain gravwell but even if you could it would suffer the same effect.

Thanks. I see, and I think I understand, will try removing trade depots from the star.

Also, I have another problem now, I'm playing against an "unfair" AI, which sent a single Kultorask Titan against me and I cannot kill it because it keeps healing itself. Killed almost all my units single handed.

Never mind. I killed it with bomber spam, took me two hours and three fleets to realize it heals when killing my ships.

Technically it heals when fighting frigates. The Kultorask is almost invincible when fighting frigates/cruisers, but none of its abilities can harm any other unit type, and for a titan its base damage is weak. So basically the key is to try and isolate it then blast the heck out of it with your own titan, capitalships, corvettes, strikecraft etc.
