If what you are looking for is the 'startup' of a monster that hits that magic 25k resource mark by year 2450 - I can create that for you and send it to you (any race PRT you want I can do) - at around turn 20 with all the files.

A testbed step-by-step is not the best thing. In a real game most of this information will be useless. Interaction with other players is most of the game and it is missing in testbed scenarios. If someone just wants to be able to get 25k (or 20k or 30k or whatever the number of the day is for a given PRT), you can just build a race for them and give them a few pointers of what to do (start building scouts at turn X, start sending out colony ships at turn Y, get such and such tech at turn Z, etc.)

To get real experience from watching the turns, it has to be a real game against real opponents. I remember ages ago someone used to organize games where expert/advanced players were paired up with newbies. Might be a good idea to resurrect them.
