Supported, this is the main reason I pretty much don't bother with planetary interaction.

Anything that helps cut down on the potential of RSI from PI is warmly supported...

I like what Marcus Gideon said:
So how's about we get a quick option through the command center (which is otherwise a completely useless object).
[Reset Extractors]
- [5 minute cycle]
- [15 minute cycle]
- [30 minute cycle]
- [1 hour cycle]
I have been managing only 2 planets for less than a week and was going to start a topic suggesting this.
I don't think it would stop macros, only make it easier to write the program.

I cant stand the click fest. I too was thinking about proposing this idea, but the OP actually was able to put it into words, Thank you OP. You are Awesome.

I remember in one of CCP's vids, a dev said they were designing PI to be a feature for a "thinking man's game". When 90% of your interaction with the feature is repetitive clicking... enough said.

Please god yes.
I understand that CCP want planetary interaction to be engaging, but this mindless click-fest is not the way to do it. Going to every single extractor and clicking, waiting for the scan, then selecting your deposit is absolutely FUBAR. It doesn't encourage any sort of thought beyond inspiring the desire to drill holes into ones own head.
I find setting up PI to actually be a very cathartic and rewarding experience. You start to see your colony grow, and sometimes it takes on shapes that you didn't even plan for. Squeezing every last bit of power-grid out of your CC's can be a fun little strategy game. And then THE FUN DIES.
There is no reason to not batch extractors. I see the logic behind "working" for your passive income, at least a little bit, but what we have here is not work. It is a waste of time. The dynamic nature of setting your PI up in the first place is work. But when everything is set up, there is no more thinking involved, so why force us to click 100+ times like mindless slavering drones?
Incidentally, I'm not raging about this because I just want things to go faster. The heart of this issue is that there is nothing more you really need to do after you set things up. Now if CCP were kind enough to make PI a more fluid and organic experience, I would happily click away and be content with spending my time doing it. Until then though, please let us batch extractors on a planet!

Hell yes. I have 2 chars doing a production chain in a c4 wh. thats aprox 70+ extractors. It's no fun to turn them all on every single day. The colecting and bringing them to the central procesing planet I do like eaven though that part can get me killed.

The PI market will crash if such a change is introduced without replacing it with a brainsink. Not fun, but without a more complex and engaging PI system it's all that we have in term of barrier to entry.

If you need an in-game reason, an old Atari could have been programmed to switch on multiple extractors. Are you seriously suggesting the computers in the EVE universe can't do that?

I find the name of your corp and the insanity of your post highly ironic.
Well played, good troll. Well played.

I support this idea. I agree that PI should not be an automated ISK sink, but the number of clicks needed is ridiculous. Look at Starbases...every time you unload the silo you just offline it, unload, online it, and you're done. Why does PI have to be so much more tedious?

supported, it would be nice for a one button refresh button to restart the extraction processes.... i spend nearly an hour a night resetting all 6 planets on my character this would reduce that time dramaticly

I trained up all my PI skills and even got elite level command centers set up great colonies... and never use them for precisely this reason.
I don't mind CCP requiring me to interact with them... but making it so damn well inconvenient when I do means PI == fail without this.
