Version 1.1 of my substantially updated guide is now available (for free of course!) at:
http://www.kevinsthoughts.com/?p=435
This guide is centered around the concept of building PI infrastructure around ones Launch Pad - thus LPC: Launch Pad Centric.
Please note the Section Index to the left of the article in the blog space. That should make it easier to find specific things if you routinely use the guide.
Besides revamping the documentation around LPC, additional sections have been added around Cost and Figures, Capability by Command Center level, and a small section on using an Alt for PI without diverting much of your real training time to do so.
Thanks for your support!

Thanks for the kind words. Your absolutely correct on all counts - so much information, so little time!
This guide really is for the novice, and I still claim that title even after writing the guide. Its basically what I wish I could have found before I started doing PI.
Thanks again. |

No apologies are appropriate. I tend to write as I think, and according to my family, thats not an easy thing to follow!
Actually, one of the biggest concerns I had when writing this was the "learning cliff" Eve is so famous for. I just couldn't find a way to define every term in meaningful ways before using it and simply begging for patience.

was reading through your very useful guide and you can now make 1 change.
"Wait until one extraction cycle is complete (30 minutes if your program is 2 days or less in length) and THEN route the products that will be delivered to your LP to the factories"
You no longer need to wait. If you click on your LP after routing P0 from ECU to LP and select routes (3 arrows icon) you will see something like P0 3000 incoming. You can select this entry and then create route to your factory even though you have no P0 in storage.
I find this particularly useful for factory planets and I can have everything routed prior to the completion of the first cycle.
Cheers.
I've been doing this for awhile now and occasionally have been having a weird problem where everything looks routed, but no final product is produced. I think its because I'm routing the same "input" to multiple factories. Not really sure. Actually just deleted all my input routes on some problem planets and allowing things to accumulate for re-routing. I did notice on the planets that I had problems with (maybe about 1 in 4 that I used this technique on), that I would see multiple input routes for the same item.
Just a heads-up. |
