Crew AI

Crew AI
There are many possibilities to improve your bots.

To setup your bots go to the menu and click "Crew AI". Select the bot you want to improve.

The developers released a great introduction video when the overwrite system was released, which explains how to use the system and gives several examples.

Priorities
Priorities are read from the top and down. So going down the list of conditions from the top, the first one with its requirements met, will be the one that decides how many 'dots' are assigned to that behavior. The number of dots assigned to a behavior, has a different effect depending on the behavior. (Light aux system for example, is just On/Off, while power to a system controls how much power is assigned)

In this image, there are two Conditions that are met: Green Alert and Shields >= 50%.

But because 'Shields >= 50%' is above 'Green Alert', it gets to decide that the lights are turned off, because 0 dots are assigned.



The conditions that are met, have white text, while the ones that are not met, are a darker grey.

The one that currently has highest priority is marked by the white line to the left of the text.

Engineer Bot
The easiest improvement is to change the engineer bot to not use auxiliary power. 0 dots means "OFF" (click the last dot to remove it), 1 dot means "ON".

Sci Bot
This bot can activate your cloak, eg:Assign a high priority to it when in warp.
