For AI ships, and for the AI-controlled Rebel Flagship, do systems (particularly piloting) count as manned, or do they just rely on autopilot?

They must count as manned, or use a different set of dodging equations entirely. The Auto-Scout and Auto-Assault ships have only one level of the Piloting subsystem but are able to dodge.

I think they're counted as being fully manned as well, and also staffed to repair – spartacus Sep 27 '12 at 14:07
They can also jump. – deworde Sep 28 '12 at 8:32
They seem to repair much more slowly. I wonder if interrupting actions (e.g. having an invader, fire, etc) cancel the manning. Not sure how I'd find out :D – Samthere Oct 1 '12 at 12:55
