Edited by: Wyke Mossari on 11/04/2010 20:16:05 The amounting of clicking needed is dreadfully painful.
Instead make routes by dragging rubber band lines from source to destination.
To transfer resources also use drag and drop the un-routed resource from the pop-up to the destination. Use the same UI mechanics that is used when moving stacks between hangers/hold. Drag all unless shift pressed when a number is entered.
The scanner colours don't work, different gradients are to similar to the colours of the planet textures.

Edited by: Wyke Mossari on 14/04/2010 01:58:15 'Stuck' extractors.
Once an extractor has exhausted a deposit they often get stuck and won't restart. The counters typically run on, but not always. The link shows as still active and passing resources but has actually stopped passing resource, nothing extra arrives at the other end.
There seems to be two separate bugs here. 1) The exhausted job doesn't end/clear properly. 2) The links showing active when they are not.
Attempting to rescan for deposits causes a error message to be displayed stating the foreman cannot be contacted/is busy. Performing a second rescan makes this go away, but selecting a deposit and submitting fails. The extractor stays inactive. a a new extraction job is restarted. The previous work-around was to replace extractors with a new ones for each deposit. However...
Rescanning should end any current extraction job and clean up/re-initialise the extractor.
Work-around to prevent rebuilding extractors. 1) Click the scan button. Get foreman busy message. 2) Repeat step 1) for each non-working extractor in group. 3) Click scan again. Second time you usually get a list of deposits returned. 4) Select one but DO NOT PRESS submit yet. 5) Rescan all non working extractors, selecting deposits and NOT pressing submit. 6) Once all extractors have be rescanned, Watch the cycle time for all extractors. The circle around the outside. 7) Once all extractors cycles have completed a full extractions, only then click submit.
This technique fixes most extractors, but not all.

Originally by: C Melindy I think that they should put a "fuel" part into this PI, similar to the POS fuel. or maybe a solar power plant to replace the fuel cost but since the powerplant takes up cpu, it causes you to put less extractors.
anyways, can't wait for this weekend "special PI test"
Launches should consume rocket fuel, at least it would have a proper use.
