=== Profit! ===

[[File:LaunchFromCC.png|right|Pending Launch from CC]]Assuming you'd just like to get on with it and make some money, we can certainly do that! Anything you make with PI can be sold on the market, though it is difficult to say what is going to be the most profitable. At a minimum it seems reasonable to recommend processing your Resources into P1 goods before trying to sell them, as doing so shrinks the volume they take up to about 25% of the original. Even better would be going for P2 for another drop to 25% of the original, or a tiny 6.25% total of the volume in plain Resources. Getting items off the planet costs a fee based on what you're launching, so shaving off volume will help! ~~TODO: Confirm details~~

You have two options for getting goods off your planet, either launching a simple (and small) rocket from your CC or placing a [[Planetary Buildings#Launchpad|Launchpad]] on your colony (rather expensive) and using it to interact with an orbiting [[Colony Management#Interplanetary Logistics|Customs Office]]. The Launchpad has the greater cost up front, but is far superior to the CC and exports for a smaller fee. It can also launch far larger amounts, and is the only way to import stuff on to the planet.
