Hey i have been recently been boosting up my PI productions over many different characters to make PI material. I have made a factory planet on one on my characters to make the EU, Coolant and Robotics out of the lower tier materials, and its been getting really annoying to keep changing to schematics of all my factories and redoing all the routes one by one. So i have been asking around a lot over EVE about this idea that would be awesome addition to PI, something where you could either select multiple industry facilities at one time and change the schematics, routes etc. OR where you can make your own presets of how you wish to set up a planets, something like fittings for ships. Many people i have asked agree that this would be a good addition to the game and i wanted to post this on the forums to see what the wider community thinks, or if any of you have your own idea's you would like to post.
Fly Safe, and hopefully our ideas might be able to get through into the real game.

Chiffy -
I think the idea is sound - there should really be no need to click on every facility individually to change schematics or set up routing.
However, like Manufacturing and T2 invention, where you cannot set up multiple jobs CCP seems to like the click-click time sink. I guess because it weeds out many of the part-time, really-can't-be -bothered-with-manufacturing players.
You have to want to do the clicking to get the reward.
Still a good idea (along with setting up multiple invention/factory jobs for the same reason.
TL;DR Good idea. +1
Devs - Perhaps this could be moved to the Ideas forum?

Thanks for taking the time to reply,i am hoping more people will give their ideas on this subject to try and get the Dev's attention to have a think about this idea.
P.s. Didn't notice the idea's forum =S

I often switch Extractor production over, nearly aways forgetting to re-route the stuff. Having two set up to switch between would a cool feature to have. Although I enjoy PI and task of getting everything together, I feel that the "mini-game" needs more developement. If we take this idea and further develop PI, e.g. expand it for some commodities that is needed in manufacturing (maybe for DUST), then switching production over could be something that the average player is doing routinely (rather than setting up a static production for Robotics, say).

I for one, support this idea. It would allow my PI character to take other resources from my corpmates and use my factory planet to manufacture more items. +1

i guess this is bad idea to change routes and schematics all the time. Are you sure your method gives better productivity than "1 planet - 1 resource" ?

This depends on your PI skills and what you want to do, it also depends how resource rich the planet is. This system would be good for me as currently i can make all required PI fuel needed to run a POS for my current setup points. It gets annoying, as explained above, to keep changing the schematics one by one on my 'Factory' planet whenever i need to run a new type of resource.
