Could we have a skill that allows us to save PI setups ( how we lay out the facilities ) say 1 planet base, then levels 1-5 increasing the number of planets you can apply the “setup” to.
Then allow us to use these setups to quickly assemble PI setups.
1, Need a Goto or Next button which lets you rotate round your mining objects on the planet.
2, Let you change the size of the objects so there are easier to find.
Each planet is going to have a different setup to optimize it, this would be pointless.
The more resources you extract per node the less nodes you need and the more factories you can have, It’s rare that more than 30% of my planet’s look the same.
If you are doing the same build on every planet you are loosing 30% efficiency.
What I would like to see is to be able to save multiple factory setups (Templates, if you will), routings and all, so I can switch between production targets quickly and with less errors. Going from my Nanite paste setup to the L2/L3/L4 production lines and back again is a real Challenge, and I ALWAYS seem to get something screwed up in the process.
Exactly, ie most Barren and Temperate planets would be setup for T4/T3 80% of the time and my guess 20% would be extracting along with T2, perhaps even T3 for those small adjustments to meet the T4 JIT requirements.
Saved Templates could be a selling point in the *Next PI overhaul *?
I agree. But some people with multiple accounts with max toons, Really dont like setting up 90 planets and would gladly drop a template P2 configuration on a planet, then only manually place the nodes.
The idea is that there is an “option” to do it, where the player can decide optimal verses convenient.
