I am moving into a new WH (c2) with a few guys and I want to get into PI, but I don't know where to start re: best setup. Could someone give me some advice? Here are my planets:

Plasma
Lava
Barren x4
Temperate
Gas x 3

Thanks.

The best advice I can give you is to play with different setups on SiSi. What you build really depends what your skills are, how many planets, what command centre upgrade skill you have, etc.

This shows all the schematics and this is also one I use sometimes (nice layout in some instances).

Thanks. I am willing to invest about 20 days of skill time on about 5 characters. I just don't know how to plan my colony.

trial and error. There are so many variables there is no one way to setup your PI. It would be pretty much impossible to tell you how to specifically set it up for your situation.

This lists what each planet can make: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Planetary_Commodities

Since you have a fixed list of planets, start with what you can make, work out what's a good balance between most profitable, acceptable work and acceptable hauling quantities, and then trial and error w.r.t. the planetary layout.
