Eve Online Planetary Industry / Interaction Pt: 1 Principles and Basics. BEST Passive ISK In Eve? 

Oh my freaking god, the entrance music to this vid made me crap my pants as I was in the middle of mining in my covetor on the other screen and I thought I was about to get ganked!!!

Thank you for this, so very often guides seem to be made for people who don't NEED the guide.

Great video and just the push I needed to get in to PI. Don’t apologize for the level of detail or length of the video, it was well worth it. Looking forward to the next one.

Hands down the best detailed and well explained PI video I’ve seen so far. Looking forward already to part 2 and 3 (added to my watch later list)

This is the best tutorial I have yet seen on EVE planetary production. Thank you!

If you don't know, well now you know. Wow. A whole new facet of the game I never bothered to try. Cool.

best intro song ever. also this is the one video that's actually good for PI. Thank you sir

This is one of, if not the best, guide on PI I found. Very detailed, exactly what you need to know on the topic. You've got yourself a sub 👍

Thanks for all the hard work and welcoming us to your Evil Empire. You have inspired me to do more nulsec and dangerous missions. This video shows the nuts and bolts of PI and saved me so many problems in this ridiculous game. Im watching you since July and this is another great lecture. The combat commentary is better than most sport announcers. Keep flying and trying.

Great video, just got my PI going after watching, keep up the good work.

You put out a lot of great info. Really enjoy watching your videos.

Good job. Teacher! DAD DEX

The amount of light years will impact the scan resolution. The higher the skill, the further away you can be from the planet and get accurate picture of the materials.

Thanks for taking the time to spell this out. Although long winded, as many aspects to eve are, watching this video has cleared up years of misunderstanding for me. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this. I have just started eve and this has me interested in doing PI, well done! I will train it up some more as I am really really liking it.

Just watched this again. Great info, my Alliance has a training on this coming up and pretty sure Ill be as smart as the teacher after this video. Thank you for sharing.

Really well done. Hope most of this is still up to date, I am going to use it to start my own PI.

loved this in depth tutorial, thank you, keep it up !

I've been waiting for this video for a while. Thanks Dad!! :)

Instructions unclear, got my sigil stuck in wh

Awesome! So useful, I followed along and managed to get everything working.

Thank you very much. Very clear, very nice for a begginer. I will start PI and we will see how it goes.

I was soo good at this, but after few years offline EVE I have to learn everything again. Good I still have the skillpoints. Thanks for the video, mate!

Awesome tutorial man! I already have 4 planets producing T1 items for my biocells, the 5th one will be for T2 production. Already making some isk daily, however I might have to optimize my production soon.

Thank you very much for the good explanation video, it really helped me out setting up a planetary base after i struggled with it! I will really follow your channel, keep up the good work! ;)

Thanks for vid, very informative. Im trying to setup PI and this will help me a lot and Pt 2 as well

Awesome video, thanks for making it.

Thanks for the guide! Helped a lot!

Brilliant video. Struggled with PI to understand setup sequence and what needed to be connected (and what not). Thanks much!

YAY DEX ill watch this later and then when people ask me about PI I can point them here as I get no end of people asking about it. Ive never done PI and im want to keep it that way 😀

Hey mate, thanks heaps for the video I was glued to it!

Hello marck great video 4 noobie planet extractors i never try and iknow now how too do it. no matter the time of video wee are learning so your calm and slow explications is great . Doo much more and thak you 4 your work and time you spend too help us. big up 4 you and your family.

awesome video, thank you just starting out in P.I. . . this info was very useful.

Actually this was a great video it has helped me immensely thank you.

Excellent instructions for a newbie. Cheers. 👍

Very very helpful. Great tips

Thank you very mcuh man! Great help!

Thank you for this. Setting up PI now ;-)

Good video very helpful thanks for making it.

best recent tutorial on PI

Another great video, thanks! subbed

Remember at the start of PI you could see the planets from the station. Maybe remote sensing decide how far away you can/could see the planets. Was Alpha that time but think about to get now a nice passive income.

Like the others have pointed out I like how you start at a very simple PI setup. I have high skills but I haven't played in so many years that it's nice to learn it again. I don't know if I was a noob or if prices have changed but one of my planets is making a lot of isk and the other 2 are pure disaster zones. Launching yourself costs 15%. Where I put my planets previously the tax at least now is 20% so it's cheaper to launch. I wish I could pay 10% or 5% or something nice.

Great video, helped a ton. Tnank you.

A great help! Thanks!

2022 and you still have to wait until products and mined or refined for you to make routes! Great video, thanks.

Thanks Dad!

Thank you for this

Awesome! Just awesome!

very good guide!

very help full will go and play

I really aprecciate your explanations , thanks a lot bro...Big hug from Portugal

10:20 You most probably got it by now (and I didn't see if it was already answered in the comments, I just scrolled a few). But just in case. The "Remote Sensing" skill is necessary to use the "Scan" feature when you are in "View Planetary Industry" mode. Each level allows you to scan planets in systems at a certain distance from where you are, measured in Light Years (not the number of jumps away). In don't know the size of the New Eden galaxy, nor it's density (star wise), but to put into perspective, the closest star to the Sun in our very own galaxy is Proxima Centauri, which is 4.24 light years away. So if such a thing existed in real life we would need level 5 of Remote Sensing to be able to scan the planet(s) around Proxima Centauri.

very good info!

Great information, I am an hour away from skill lvl 3 on these skills. Can't wait for passive income

Thanks so much. I'm off and running.

Amazing. Thank you.

Woww nice series ty broo i lovee youu

Remote sensing allows you to scan planets in different systems. The light years refer to system distance on the map. It can be useful if you're looking for the right planet to set up extraction on, but frankly it's a skill you can easily skip.

Superb tutorial Dad (Dex). Really appreciated your opening comments and overall approach regarding other videos diving straight into maxed-out PI skill setups. I'll do the calculations at some point but do you think selling P2 or P3 products can be more profitable than selling P4 products due to the intricate and time-intensive processes it takes to manufacture P4s? I'm still relatively new to Eve so hopefully it's not too much of an ignorant question :)

Remote sensing relates to 2 things. 1: To be able to see the material compisition of planets in the PI tab in "agency". If a planet is too far away for your remote sensing level, you will not be able to see the amount of resources that planet holds until you get closer to it. 2: It relates to actual scanning of planets. If you cant see the material composition of a planet (due to low remote sensing) you will not be able to scan it either.

awsom thanks.

You don’t need to wait for your stockpile of raw resources to start to build up in order to re-route them back to your Basic Industry Facilities! Simply select your launchpad/storage and go to Routes, you should see the Incoming overflow here. Select that, then choose “Create new route” and send it to each BIF. All done!

Hi Dad. The scan slider correlates directly to the "scan squares". The slider has a right side and a left side - i call them slider-MAX and slider-MIN. Noble metals shows only ONE square aka 10% max. material on the planet. That means that you have to put slider-min ALL the way to the left and slider-MAX at the first "notch" (10%) also all the way to the left. (difficult maybe as the two slider only can be compressed to about 1,5 - 2 notches. Dad, you had the slider-MAX on 3,5 notch and slider-MIN on 1,8 hence no material shows up. What i normally do, is put slider-min and slider-max close together and grab the middle of the scan slider dragging it all the way to the left. Sry for my english - BTW this is a very good video and you way of telling stuff is great. Keep it up.

good work

Great intro music!

Good video

thx..;) good vid

Just an FYI, but an AU (astronomical unit, distance from earth to the sun) is a real world unit of measure, not just an eve thing. So a lightyear is 63241.1 AU. Seems like in game this would be better represented as jumps tho.

the Lightyear range relates to how far systems are away from each other. It's also relevant to how much fuel a capital uses when using it's jump drive. at least that was the case when i last played actively, currently trying ot get back into the game. You can check out dotlan's jump planner (navigation) for that and see how far away system are. I guess regarding PI it means from how far away you can enter planetay view.

Awesome video, have watched lots now and own loads of catalysts for belt ratting thanks to you and now a thrasher, about to make a garmur as dropped a bpo, never tried planetary so this has encouraged me, want to do it in a WH, not up on Wormholes, do i need to scan them down and find a static or are they easier to find than scanning..? thanks again for awesome tips !

light years are how the distance between star systems are measured. Outside of PI it is what determines a ships jump range.

I really liked this video helped out my PI set up greatly. I noticed you mentioned multiple times to dock at your planet how do you do that actually I cant seem to figure it out.

tip: put your storage, launcher, and industry facilities on a line, sometimes that makes the diference to reach spots far away to put the extractors with the power avaiable.

The tunes!

Regarding the Remote Sensing skill, and "light years": It's how far into other systems you can view planets' resources. Select "Planet Scan Range" in the [F10] in-game map to view.

Hi Great Vid, Remote sensing distance increasing the Scan of planet resource spots (on the surface) from a far (don't have to be in the same system) haven't played for a year or so so not sure if this skill distance attribute is still relevant these days

great video man, thnx. I have a question: The extractor has e.g. current cycle/h 10,000 units but comes much less into the storage facility. The same problem is then in the next step between storage and industry facility. I have in the storage facility 5,000 units and I send 3000 units in the industry (P1 production). 2000 units should remain in storage but not. The same goes for all the next steps. Where is the difference lost? Example: I got 11,000 units in stock. I had 3 active factories (P1) but only one got the raw material. The other two were left empty (out of material) !! ???

PLZ turn on Dark Mode on Dotlan. Ow my eyes.

so light years, just like in capital warfare is how they measusre how many systems away it can be managed

Thanks for a really informative video, I have watched all 3 but keep coming back to this one, I setup my first PI site last night and I am trying to get my head around the routing/links. For some reason I could not get mine setup as you have done with a link/route from the "mine head" to the factory. So I sent the "mine head" output to the storage and then a 2 way to/from the storage and industry, that way industry pulls from storage the raw ore and pushed the finished material back to storage. Non of the links are over taxed, is this an OK way to do it or should I persevere and try and get your way working? Edit: Having just watched your Pt1 video for the 6th time I think the reason I can't created another route from the "mine head" is because there is no spare/excess material to route, does that sound right?

HI DAD IM HUNGRY

Wait until people see the yields in wormholes and null. But great introduction and don’t be afraid to tinker in HS before building chains in J space

I can't seem to get my products off the planet for some reason, it won't allow me to launch it to the Customs office, saying I need to increase my standing with something? Anyone know what to do?

Umm…can you reply me pls, what is standing cylon…? I cannot pickup my construction block for that, it said that I don’t have enough cylon standing for it

Lightyears is a measurement of distance

Any particular reason for the 12hrs cycle? What are the key factors based on which one would calculate the optimum cycle duration?

Just recovered my EO accounts after 5 1/2 years away with a view to coming back. Happily 7 of my 8 mains appear to have 700-800 plex (assuming an offer went on to encourage me back after the plex system changed and alpha clones freeplay was introduced) couldn't work out why some of them had such high net worth with the ships and stuff they have lying around, watching this it twigged it could be they have pots of PI stuff lying around as well. Still trying to get to grips with all the changes, its just a pity so much of the game is locked away till I pull the trigger on omega. So much to relearn.

i heard that you got a few buildings by standard as alpha?

Not to brag but like on my first try at pi I was able to get all the stuff needed for oxygen fuel cubes B)))

the redundant training is distance from planet

How much isk do you get from this per acc. per day

Does this guide still hold as of May 2022?

So it was you who ruined PP prices by telling to newbros how to make easy ISK! At least now I know whom to blame for it. :)

Do you also have an investing channel - Mark Tilbury?

Do I need to be omega to colonize a planet?

why is there a line across the screen?

Your videos are the Best. But your intro is horrible haha

You're doing it wrong. Route the exctractor to the storage unitz storage to factories and factories to launchpad. Uses less CPU and power and you have the storage unit as a buffer before the factories so it holds any excess materials until the factories are done with their cycle.

HiSec PI is a disaster....find a friendly wormhole with a dockable station. Making millions per day of P3 products.
