I'm having a bit of trouble levelling crew members' skill level.

I have two Magnetars, one set to local automine and its pilot simply "refuses" to reach 3 stars so I can set him to advanced automine and improve his autonomy.

The other Magnetar's pilot only reached 3 stars because I managed to get a 3-star Piloting seminar from a mission out of sheer luck.

They've been mining for a good long while (the first two ships I bought, for passive income) and they're absolutely not reaching 3 stars on their own.

I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to make this other Magnetar pilot reach 3 stars faster. I haven't had any luck trying to find another mission with a 3-star piloting seminar as a reward.

Pilots get higher skill when they are fighter / destroyer captain and e.g. patrol in somehow hostile area (are fighting).

Another way to improve their pilot skill is that they are pilot in the ship you're flying. If you get fight with Kha'ak, Xenon or any other hostile enemy they gain experience passively from your actions.

3rd way (if not counting seminars) is when you start terraforming mission there's possibility build flight school to planet and then you can train 100 pilots simultaniously and each round they gain 1 star more (max 4 stars).

Thank you for the ideas. :)
