I have Command Center Upgrades IV and Interplanetary Consolodation IV

I'm trying to max out T3 production(PI, not ships Blink ) but can only see to make '1' amount of T3 item (3 units /hr). I've been reliably told that If I'm careful I could double this while still only utilising 4 planets (3 planets to make T2 items and 1 to turn T2 into the T3) but I cannot see how to achieve this without training Command Center Upgrades to V

Each of 3 planets makes 10 units of T2 item per hour and I just can't see how to double this.

I've already got - 4 Basic's and 2 advanced factories in a 'hex' around the Launchpad, using the launchpad as an intermediate storage facility. 2 of the basics are next to the Command Center with the extractors next to them and the Command Center - in other words everything tight together. The only long links are the the extractor heads themselves - 2 for each extractor (I'm in a WH, so resource rich)



Anyone got any hints/tips or advice on how I can improve my production efficency?

In 0.0 I have 5 planets 4 making 1 p1 each 5th making p2/p3 and can keep 4 p3 processors running most of the time you want 1 or 2 extractors going to launchpad as close as you can get it upgraded to 1 or 2km3 with 8 basic processors making p1 each planet as long as you can keep basic running full out can have 4 p3 factorys running 24/7 just need to fill with 80 of each of the p2's so runs even
