Starting off small can help, check the local region for prices and make enough to cover your costs. Building large installations that cost a lot to start with can place you worse off. With something as new and as detailed as PI, playing it safe is usually your best bet.

Planets may be managed from anywhere in range, though resource scanning will be limited in range depending on your Remote Sensing skill. Even works while in warp. Planets can be managed from inside a station using the science and industry tool and clicking on the Planets tab.

To open the planet over view from anywhere Press F11 and in the side pannel you can use the bottem window to select planet view by right clicking the menu box in the left corner.

By switching solarsytems or regions in the above boxes you can scan planets in regions as far as your abilities allow.

In the solar system box you can use show info under each solar system and look at orbital bodies to get a list of planet type rather than look at them one at a time. You can also view planet directly from the list.

You cannot deploy command centers while docked, but you do not need to be at the planet as long as you're in the same system

use this link you calculate LY range to see what systems will be in range of your abilities it will help with planning.

Until you click the "submit" button, no actual changes are made to your colony. This allows you to experiment with different setups without committing to them (for example arranging buildings and links to make best use of the available powergrid and CPU). If you do not want to make your changes, simply click "cancel" and the colony will revert back to how it was.

=== Power Efficient Harvesting ===

[[File:EfficientPI.png|thumb|left|Coolant Producing Gas Planet]]

You will want to maximize efficiency to maximize your profits. The layout of your facilities will help save power grid through optimization of your planetary links. This image represents an efficient method of resource harvesting, with some industry facilities.

~~[[File:Example~~.~~jpg]]~~

On this Gas planet, 2 extractors feed into warehouses which buffer excess resources for basic industry facilities. 4 basic industry facilities produce water and electrolytes, which are then stored in the launchpad until 2 advanced industry facilities produce coolant. The coolant will eventually fill the launchpad, ready to fuel a POS or be shipped to an industry intensive planet in Organic Mortar Applicators.

Having several basic harvesting planets and a few high sec industrial planets, a pilot can make valuable goods that are space efficient, increasing the isk you make for the haul you take.

Some people find the clicking excessive in PI; others aren't impressed with the income they can gain using local resources. There is another way to utilize PI for reasonable income.
