The location of the Courier have been corrected. It isn't any longer out of map. Know you can found in to the northeast of the sector.
That's at best half of the times true (been in the map) and that depends on what else is in the system (random). It is definitely about 200-300Km off the highway on a straight line with it. Best to have a pilot with a "Go To" command, as you'll need to take over some times to fight off Xenon and Khaak and, of course, deviate from that line. There is also one lockbox around there that your pilot is most likely to call it... the Courier is visible from the lockbox...

I most be doing something wrong, as I can't find the interceptor in grand exchange 1. I have been all over the sector IAW the map here.
The Elite is on a "straight line" from where the PHQ appears (or the mark to put the ship with the 3 Antimatter Cells) to the top left corner of the hex and (most usually) out of the hex (it must expand). To help you more I'll tell you that it is on a "red" area of the map (there is one expanding on that direction).
Thanks for the hint.... I will check again. In the X3 and X3:AP you could see the coordinates for x,y,z but it looks like that is not possible here. Or am I missing something.

It's really not possible... along with any well thought off thing and behaviour as far as X4 is concerned... (see Flight AI, Mining AI, Managers and the list goes on)

Easiest way to locate any claimable ships in a sector or to quickly locate any stations is to use a Survey probe

Hope this helps

people with mods... as usual... they forgot to mention that little bit, which makes it (for those who play vanilla ), totally irrelevant to the discussion.

Indeed... Even if I have personally decided to ditch vanilla to the place it deserves (garbage bin) I always try to give "vanilla" guidance and solutions...

Besides the ships listed on the first page, have anyone found any new ships with the release of CoH DLC?

There are none. During the CoH plots you get some ships but they are dependent on the plot and not abandoned from the beginning of the game in a "fixed" position...

Several people have stated that there's a Rapier free for the claiming...somewhere, suggesting it was a new ship added to this list. I've not looked for it myself though.

Thanks Pesanur, I will update the map - need to explore it with the fresh save.
Update: created 2 new fresh saves with CoH 4.0 HF3 (Teladi & Segaris Pioneers) and analyzed the saves -> location is still the same around 1 mil. x & z ( far out of usual sector bounds).

I have checked the couple of new saves created with CoH 4.0 HF3 - no new "owner-less" static ships at my side. Probably then related to the missions?

I suspect you're right and someone mistook a mission freebie for a new static derelict.

The Courier is really easy to find, takes about 10 to 15 minutes. You just need to hop on the local highway. At the end of the highway, do not break or change direction, you are beeing catapulted directly at the Courier 300km further out.

How can I get the Odyseus destroyer out of Faulty Logic VII? I found the destroyer and claim it. I docked my Katana and try moving the destroyer up the boundary to get to the super highway, but around 70Km I hit a minefield and the ship won't move. Then I try going straight for the highway and got to the gate, but between the mines and the Xenon the ship won't move. I have clicked on a highway two sectors away.

Is this a bug? How can I get the destroyer out of this system?

Thanks for any advice.

Actually leave the sector as soon as possible... the Odysseus will come out fine with an NPC pilot and you OOS (Out Of System)

Some things work better OOS.

I usally assign a captain and give it an order to move far north west and way above the ecliptic. At the same time I move out of the sector. Finally I tell the Oddy to move to a safe location in HOP space.

Kinda a bummer they didnt add any new abandoned ships to claim in either of the DLC's. I mean would it have been so hard to plop a few down in intresting locations? You know, to encourage exploration. The exploration category in this game is pitiful.
