The deal from the beginning was a switch from low skill copy alts being the invention bottle neck to high skilled inventors has been the goal since day one of Industry revamp

The UI for ME is ineffective.

If you "Show info" on a BPO you see the base materials for the blueprint without skills or ME applied, OK.

On the left side of the BPO in the UI you should see the materials needed for the blueprint with skills AND ME applied, which of course is not there :(

On the right side of the BPO in the UI you should see the materials needed for the blueprint AFTER the ME change with skills AND ME applied.

Being able to see the output results of the ME change BEFORE running the job OR sitting down with your shiny calculator to guess at what MIGHT happen, would make deciding how far to upgrade a BPO simpler.

Pre Crius my Charon BPO was ME 1. Post Crius my Charon BPO is ME -5%, which uses more materials than it used too :( The current UI does not show me the results for changing the ME to -6% or -7%.

The current UI for ME needs to be enhanced.

237 days sounds about right with the changes made. That is not a mistake. The 4b also seems consistent with the pricing seen on sisi, though that has been hard to judge with the arbitrary data over there.

Come on you must have replaced your economist with a competent replacement who would have pointed out such a crazy system.

I'm doing low level invention / research in a wormhole and I'm getting a system cost index bar that is almost 100%

I have to post.

Indy changes are needed. The UI is looking great (once the small bugs get fixed).

But, I have to bring up the issue of Null and WH space being taxed for indy jobs.
Null only gets two things from NPCs, the first being the local chat. Give them a module to provide a local chat to the system, maybe a fee to provide their own local to be rid of any NPC interactions in that system.
The only other "service" that you could argue is provided by NPCs are the gates.
Well look at that, we already have Jump Bridges, so those are covered (somewhat).

Now, on to W-space.
We get nothing, absolutely zero, from NPCs.
NPCs don't come to help us if we get attacked.
We don't get a local chat window (unless someone talks, which could be provided by our our ship's systems).
You don't give us stations (the same could be said for Null since they have to pay billions for their stations).

We have no protection or interaction with NPCs in null or WH space.

I understand that this information has been out for some time (Unfortunately I have a life and did not see info on it prior to the Crius update).

My main reason for posting is, why are we (Null and WH) being taxed by NPCs to manufacture/invent/research modules/ships while we get virtually no benefits from these entities?
They have given us nothing. Everything we use to do these indy actions has been provided by us!
We are supposed to have complete control over our systems. That is why we live there.

In closing,
We control the system.
Why should we send isk to some NPC entity when they give us nothing in return.

Thank you to all who read this.

Your ship has crew, your POS has workers. You should pay them their paychecks and benefits you capitalist pig!

Is there a way to de-select a team?

So yeah Expensive prints are useless now?
Cant lock them in POS's making then station locked.. but then cant copy/produce off them remotely either,

Who the F would put a 50Bill isk print in a POS that cant be locked down?

Maybe a rollback to game play/design where we can remotely put on jobs into to a POS until we can lock down these prints.

At this moment, there is only one input to select.

If that is the case, we have moved all jobs that were running remotely to the station where the blueprint was based.

I've got a bunch of manufacturing jobs (on my alts) that were finished but not delivered before the patch but that I can't seem to deliver.

I get the error message: You can't add the Cap Recharger II as there simply isn't enough room for it to fit. It takes up 49.98 units of volume, and there are only 19.57 left.

I remote started these jobs from my office to run at my POS. All arrays at the POS have more than enough room.
