I went ahead and designed a robot crew-astrogation robot, mechanic robot,and guard robot (gave it a gun for combat) rest of the crew is human-players.
You can give the bots an experience processor (p.23 of Robots book)which it can improve its skills through use of those skills.
I dont see why you couldnt have bots as crew-as long as a crew member was able to repair and maintain them. I try to keep the bots "behind the scenes"
My pirate ship uses bots to storm and attack other ships. They just want cargo so tend to shoot anyone in the way. Helps with the pirates boarding numbers-and doesnt strain their life support.
