Thanks for that, I noticed that too after five minutes. What I want to notice is the ship...didn't see it after 40 minutes search. A route from the exit (which can be selected for distance) anyone? A screenshot looking back at the entrance/exit with the exit selected would be most helpful...

btw, use the mod - Copilot Convo
it has a command to locate claim-able ships in zone (the search for something, 1st command), and mark them as guidance.

Can Xenon ships be claimed without a special mod? I doubt.

Very nice list however, I will try not to look too often at it and try by myself first :)

Maybe trivial, but at gamestart when you don't have a lot of credits yet you can look on your map when comming in a zone. A ship that doesn't move (other than a docked cap) is likely abandonned. Try to communicate with it, if it's impossible then no one is inside and you can take it. The map info will not tell you directly if it's abandonned, so you have to go to the Ship's Info to know wether there's a pilot or crew. But it's faster trying to communicate.
I also recommend using the MoreCrew mod.

I said above that the map will not tell you if a ship is abandonned, but it's wrong: The very first letters of a ship name in the map refers to the faction (PMC, SS etc.). If this reference is not there, then the ship is abandonned.

This makes it even easier to look for them.

Hi tsineath,

Maybe you're not close enough to get the claim option activated? Try to fly very close and around. If that doesn't help then re-check if you have indeed a pilot.

If that still not work then upload a saved game and I'll check.

There are a few: Lepton, S, P & Balor are all that I've happened upon so far; however I can't give you precise locations as I've forgotten them during testing..
