Remote Control

iwnh01: /* Other Important Information */ - Updated info on swarm limits to reflect new system: 1/2 RC level, not 1/2 slots.

'''Remote Control''' (abbreviated RC) is a [[skill]] that lets you use [[bots]] and [[capture]] [[ships]] of a tech level up to your Remote Control level. For example, if you have Remote Control 5 you may only use tech 5 or less ships. Remote control requires [[Piloting]] skill of equal or greater level. For more information, see the section at the bottom of the page.

Each level of RC gives a bonus +1500 shield to slaves, maxing out at +27,000 at level 18, 28500 at level 19, 30,000 at level 20.

It costs 3 skill points per level. The credit cost is equal to level^3*1000.

== Other Important Information ==

** Trade slots: (Remote Control + [[Bot Research]]) * 2
** Combat slots: Trade + 8 (if you have [[Advanced Subskills|Bot Ph.D.]])
** Wild slots: Combat * 2 * 1.5(if you have [[Advanced Subskills|Wild Man]])
** Trade bots: Remote Control + [[Advanced Subskills|Bot Research]] – Minimum of two.
** Combat bots: Half trade (rounded up) + 2 (if you have [[Advanced Subskills|Bot Ph.D.]])

There is also a swarm limit on combat bots. The maximum number of combat bots you can have equals half of your level in Remote Control. For example, at Remote Control 10 the maximum amount of combat bots you can have active at once is 5. With Remote Control 10 (20 slots) and [[Bot Research]] 4 (8 slots), the maximum number of combat bots you can have active is 7 (10 + 4 = 14 slots / 2) There are exceptions for levels 1-3, level 1 allows 1 bot, level 2 and 3 both allow 2 bots. The swarm limit doesn't apply to wild bots.

When activating a bot a note in events gives you an update as to how many slots you have left. This doesn't apply to wild bots because there is no way to make a docked ship into a wild bot.
