Hi all,
Can any one talk me through the early strips in getting started in PI. What sort of available capital do I need?
Cheers
First of all; getting the Planet Management skills will get you started:
- Planetology - improves planet scan resolution
- Command Center Upgrades - grant you CC more CPU and Powergrid to work with each time you upgrade the CC (this skill the # of times you can do so)
- Remote Sensing - allows for doing remote scans of planets
- Interplanetary Consolidation - increases the number of colonies you can have by 1 per level.
- Advanced Planetology - improves planet scan resolution
- Customs Code Expertise - reduces the imposed tax (by CONCORD) in highsec and Interbus POCOs that may still exist.
after that you’d need to find a suitable place (Planet); buy a appropriate Command Center and with that in your cargohold you go to the system with your chosen planet, once there you enter Planetary view on the planet, pick a spot, preferably close to the resource you want, and put down your Command Center and start building your structures and setup production chains.
Planetary Production is an Omega activity; while Alphas can have one colony they cannot export the goods it produce.
You can watch the Tutorial Videos; when ingame hit the F12-key, switch to the Tutorial Videos-tab, you’ll find them under the Resource Harvesting category, there are 4 videos in relation to Planetary Interaction (it’s the old name for Planetary Production).

also you can reprocess others people pi on your planet
I think what you mean is; you can buy PI products from the market, which other people have exported and is selling, import it to your planet and use that to fuel your production line.

An Epithal is very handy for PI, too, so you should skill some Gallente Industrial levels.
Some PI guides help you with your first steps, I recommend to browse youtube and eve uni.
