Routing...

Setting up a factory takes:
Output
1 doubleclick on factory
1 doubleclick on selected schematics
1 doubleclick on product to route
1 doubleclick to select destination

Input
1 click on launchpad, 1 click on storage icon, (if storage its a doubleclick)
1 doubleclick on product 1
1 doubleclick for factory
1 click for storage icon
1 doubleclick for product 2
1 doubleclick for factory

If you got 3 input, its more with:
1 click for storage icon
1 doubleclick for product 3
1 doubleclick for factory


This is ONE factory setup.
Its around 10 double, and 2 single.

Okey.
I got 21 * 5 = 105 factory.

Thats around 1050 double click, and 210 single.

This is just the routing after i build my setup with 965 click.

CCP are youuu seriouuuuuuuus?

Solution:
  • You can make groups from factories just like from weapons and setup the group.

    • Thats all.
    Profit!

    Oh i almost forgot. Why you need material in storage to setup input routes?
    ( but dont need materials if another factory got output route from that mats)
    Another stupid thing. Fix that too!

    forget factories EVERYTHING TAKES TOO MANY CLICKS. the entire interfacing system is inconvenient. more commands should be mappable to shortcut keys why not add macros into the game as a feature ccp can control how complex they are and you save clicks :P

    i wonder if i can sue CCP when i need carpel tunnel surgery
