Basically, clicking is tedious. It's really tedious, and we have to click tens/hundreds of times whenever we wish to set up a new PI planet. With this said, I wish to suggest a feature something like the Fittings Manager.

When you create a new PI set-up, you have the option of saving it. When this has been saved, a handy tucked away button someplace allows you to recall a list of customised PI set-ups of which you can choose and drag or place onto the planet.

It's a simple feature, but would allow people to forgo hundreds of tedious clicks.

Edit: Something else PI-directed, a context menu that allows you to split a large stack into smaller stacks of size X.

It would be nice, but I think there are easier/more helpful things around. Stuff like team papercut is doing.

And this wouldn't be considered a papercut ... why?

Cyno's lit, bridge is up, but one pilot won't be jumping home.

I said "...I think there are things that are easier..." and " ...like team papercut..."

As you might imagine, keeping the corp hanger window in your orca open when you undock is much easier than saving entire PI setups, being able to place them, adjusting for planet size and type, what have you.

I also underlined what I said and quoted the part where you put words in my mouth.

You'd think I wouldn't need to quote stuff like this since it was in the post right above yours, g0dd@mn.

The PI 2.0 topic is located here

I did propose a new UI for PI & Cities, something resembling a fitting screen with additional information and settings/configs to toy around with, but I did not go into detail about it.

Ideas would be welcome.

Eve is about Capital ships, WiS, Boobs, PI and Isk!
