How do Crewless Ships Work

Yes they scale based on level and stars. I believe a max level, 7* ship is supposed to be comparable to a G12 character with a max level, 7* ship.

No.

A crewless 7* level 85 ship scales to a 7* level 85 ship with a R7 pilot

Crewless ships, or AI driven ships, use artificial intelligence to react to sensors within the craft to allow for a non human interaction to occur

Typically speaking, the sensors pick up on the area around the craft amd allow for the AI to make calculations and react in a favorable manor.

For example, giving a crewless ship the destination port and access to weather satelite data, as well as tide conditions, navigational gps and compass details as well as gyroscopic input, cargo weight and ship dimensions/weight, tend to result in accurate directional movement.

The danger comes in when a system has no back up and a sensor / data stream fails. Then your AI is handicapped or blind.

But from a 10000 foot view, thats how a crewless ship works.

Oh wait you meant in the game. Same as a regular ship but its supposed to be tuned to be equivalent to a pilot ship. As relic levels grow they may need to retune

I'm guessing this is why crewless ships have less maxed health than crewed ships.

Once you get R8 crew members and higher, they will not scale to other ships in stats, yes (health, offense, etc)

but the tradeoff is they don't require much investment to be comparable to other ship units (no pilots to gear up)

@Ultra Thanks for the correction.
