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 bots, maxing out at 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: (Remote Control + Bot Research) * 2 + 8 (if you have Bot Ph.D.)
- Wild slots: Remote Control * 2 * 1.5 (if you have Wild Man)
- Maximum number of Trade bots: Remote Control + Bot Research (Minimum of two)
- Maximum number of Combat bots: (Remote Control + Bot Research) /2 [Rounded up] + 2 (if you have Bot Ph.D.)
There is a swarm limit on combat bots. The maximum number of combat bots you can have equals half of your level in Remote Control. With Remote Control 20 and Bot Research 5 , the maximum number of combat bots you can have active is 15 ((20{Remote Control}+ 5(Bot Research)/2[Rounded Up] There are exceptions for levels 1-3, level 1 allows 1 bot, level 2 and 3 both allow 2 bots minimum.
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.
