Two PI suggestions that we need to see in 2016 :D

I use 98% of all my time doing PI. It can be done mostly out of harm, and you would only need to be semi-active to do you biddings once or twice a day. I like the slow passed income. I have a few wishes, that have nagged me for a long time, and it seems noone takes the time to adress this. So here we are :)

1. There is a timely-factor, when moving PI from from custom-office to the planet factories themselfs. Why is this? I need to move like 100+ stuff everytime I log in. Even though its just a second or two, its still annoying that you get the "sorry items are still being transfered try again later". I think it should be possible to delete this automatic delay after moving goods from custom office to planet and visa versa. There is no delay when dragging from custom-office to cargo. Pretty please? :)

2. Sometimes when moving material from a planet factory to the custom-office, then when you press "Transfer" the window disapeer. Not every time, and some times many times in a row. You would have to open up the custom-office window again, and see that your goods have been transferred. But again, when moving 100+ stuff, and the window closes like 20 times out of the 100, it gets annoying too. So maybe invest a little time on this. :)

That was all. Thanks for the best MMO out there, and the longlivity you managed to pull of. Happy wishes and a great 2016 for all!

Best regards.

What we really want is a "restart all extractorcycles" so you only need 1 button to restart the pi on all 6 planets ...

BUT i know how op that would be .... #effort.

I think we need to see a PI revamp rework entirely. Currently it is nothing more than a freaking clickfest that disencouraged almost everyone. Also it needs to be less of a isk faucet, in which the selling price to NPC's needs dropping, as it should be more of a capsuleer --> capsuleer kind of work.

PI is going to get a lot more interesting as Citadels get closer and people start to realize just how much P4 you need to build one http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/building-your-citadel-one-block-at-a-time/. I don't think there is currently enough P4 on the empire market to make more than 1 XL!

Edit: link to material sheet didn't work so replaced with link to devblog.
