Hi everyone,
Following the previous thread here (which has now been locked), I’m excited to share a major new feature added to Industrial EVE: the Colony Builder!
The Colony Builder is designed to help you plan and create PI templates—either for personal use or to share with others.
What is the Colony Builder?
It lets you create and save full PI setup templates that can be imported in-game, saving time and reducing planning errors. Here’s what you can do:
- Create Your Own Templates
Design full colony layouts from scratch to suit your needs. Paste it easily in-game. - Save and Manage Your Designs
Store your templates in your profile, so you can access and update them anytime. - Import & Export Support
Bring in existing designs or download and share the ones you’ve built. - Share with the Community
Choose to keep your templates private or publish them to the new Community Templates page. Discover what others are building, and get inspired!
I made the Colony Builder in an effort for users to be able to create templates more easily without the need to log in. The Community Templates page was created for users to be able to easily find pre-made templates from other users, save them in their profile, and then also import them into the game.
I’ll be monitoring for feedback and ready to improve or expand functionality based on what the community needs.
The next functionality I will work on will probably be to be able to copy already placed pins and paste them again so you don’t have to do the same actions for identical pins.
Let me know what you think or if you’d like to see additional features!
If you want you can join the discord for the website and let me know if you find any bugs.
Fly safe,
Cpt_Teras
