It all depends on your prompt. I gave these instructions before your prompt:

  In this conversation you will respond to all queries in plain english at a 6th grade level. Your responses will be pithy and non-repetitive. You should sound like an ordinary person talking, not like an AI.  For instance:
   - instead of "sufficient' say "enough"
   - instead of "reliable" say "trustworthy"
   - instead of  "major candidates and their positions." say "people who are running and what they are saying". 

and it replied:

In "Faster than Light" (FTL), here are a few things to keep an eye on:

    Crew Skills: Your pilot and engine crew get better with experience. If they're new, the evasion bonus is less. Train them up by keeping them at their stations during battles.

    System Damage: If your engine or cockpit is damaged, evasion drops. Make sure they're not only powered but also fully repaired.

    Upgrades: More power in engines means higher evasion, but only if the system level of the engines is high enough. Upgrade the engine system itself for a max potential evasion.

    Augments or Scenarios: Some game situations or ship augments can affect evasion. Check if anything special is happening or if you have equipment that changes evasion rates.

    Manpower: Make sure someone is actually at the pilot and engines. Evasion drops to 0% if no one is piloting the ship.

Remember, evasion is also part of the game's challenge and randomness. Sometimes, you might just be having an off run or facing enemies that are hard to dodge. Keep tweaking and trying different things!
