The pilot script works like this now:
1. You can hire fresh pilot (with some basic skills) for the price 40K-80K.
2. When you get a quest which is supposed to give you new pilot - you have to dock all your pilots in order to properly count them. If you have 6 or more (yes you can virtually have more than 6 pilots - they are simply not visible) you have to choose one to dismiss. Pilot perks and points are saved so if you will have free slots in the future (like after Ternie kidnapping) you can hire this pilot again with all previous progress restored.
3. Brina and KT from SW2 is back. They work as firmware and have all their perks. They start with basic skills like other pilots.
4. You can teach them new perks. Because firmware type pilots can't gain exp your hero shares his with girls. They works like mind eaters and suck your hero for exp
. When you hire Brina and KT your hero get new perk that doubles all his experience gains. This way your hero and girls won't be too weak when others will be far more experienced. Perks will be obtainable through the maintenance station menu.
5. Brina & KT won't be cheap. They are like 3 best firmwares combined so price will be around 300K with basic perks only. Fully developed girls make your mothership really a death star.

Every time you hire even the same pilot you have to pay his price. I think it simulates what you said. The script can check the perks possessed by a pilot and count pilot price by these perks (table with perks prices should be made) but IMO it's too much effort for such a thing.
The script still needs some work so probably no new version this week.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
