At any of the planetary screens, after choosing to build something, hold alt and type "CRUNCH" and it will be built immediately. You will know you have done it correctly when you hear a beep and "1" appears in the Time to Build space.

Enter these cheat codes while holding down the ALT key on the starmap. Be careful when using the iseeall code as it can change your race stats.
