In a dev blog a month or more back, CCP slated a number of changes to Planetary Interaction, including a revamp of the UI to remove the "clickfest" syndrome of PI, as part of this was mentioned an "Extractor Control Unit" that would allow you to restart all your extractors on a planet on the same cycle all controlled through 1 place instead of having to manually start each one.
These changes seem to have been forgotten since then, and CCP has not mentioned them once in all the patch notes and dev blogs released for Incursion. Since the changes were not in Phase 1, and have not been listed in Phase 2, can CCP reassure that those changes will be included in the 3rd and final phase of Incursion in January? Or have we been screwed once again and these changes will drop back to the supposedly urgent list of priorities the CSM has?
When I find the dev blog that originally mentioned the changes ill edit it in, meantime has anyone else seen anything to indicate the PI changes are still going ahead?

Ah I hadn't seen that reference, however with CCP's history of "features" dissapearing from patches just prior to their release, I would very much like a Dev to officially confirm they will be in the january release, rather than just hope and pray. Mainly I wanted to highlight that there many ppl waiting for these changes who will be very annoyed if they aren't in the jan release.
sidebar: that link also says the Noctis was in for the 3rd release, so that must have been bumped up?

Anyone else seen anything to indicate the PI changes will be in the 3rd phase of the Incursion patches? So far we only have 1 tiny quote to go off that actually mentions PI changes for the 3rd patch, all other mentions of the 3rd patch mention the sansha invasion and the character creator but not PI changes.

Thanks to CCP Spitfire and CCP Navigator for the answers and clearing up why its not on SISI atm, I feel much reassured and wait with baited breath for the 3rd phase of the Incursion patches to go live. :)
Edit: To ppl saying the only fun part is the initial setup, theres also the daily movement of goods from one planet to another (in my current setup anyway) as well as balancing excess goods produced across all your planets and tweaking your setup here and there to add an extractor or processor to use up some extra minerals produced or the like. Still the clickfest to restart extractors is a joke, it takes me 20 mins of clicking each day for my 10 planets just to restart them all, im looking forward to doing this in 5 minutes after the changes go live.
