A thought for you all: Eve Gate access to your planets - you could move things around and refine your routing tables when not at home then, setting extractors to go over the interwebs would be good too. you dont need a full 3D access just a sort of data flow diagram style would work.
Also quick note, can we please please have a multiple select for extractors to set them all to extract their goods on one of the 4 time line options? The ability to select 15 extractors and say 5H would be awesome!

While handy, that would make it way too easy to macro/automate the process, something I'm sure CCP wants to avoid. Having a horde of macrofarmer bots descend on PI isn't something anyone wants.

This would be great, yes. Currently the interface is a clickfest.

Yeah, starting multiple extractors has to come around, otherwise it is a fulltime job to handle a few colonies at once... I'ld like to be able to group extractors as I please and start them simultanously as a group.

CCP follows a good rule - "do not allow any changes to anything in-game by any tools other than EvE client". --- EvE online. New game every 6 months. |

Given that:
1 person has 3 characters who utilise PI and each character has 5 planets with 8 extractors which need to be started every 23 hours then you will need
3 clicks on the extractor (select, scan, install)) * 8 extractors * 5 planets * 3 accounts = 420 clicks and that not including the selecting of planets which adds another 30(double clicks) plus another 15 'Submit' clicks.
So thats around 465 clicks every time you log into eve to keep your PI chains running.
It sounds a lot but will probably just take you around 15 minutes which is a small price to pay for a regular isk income and the thrills of Planetary Interaction.
p.s please don't correct my maths......please
