It is not a big stretch of the imagination to acsept that either their code for making human interiors broke too at some point, or when designing these entirely new ships, they realised there was not point in adding such interiors.
Leaves a massive plot hole with regards why Xenon stations have interiors.
Sure glad I didn't purchase a new computer this release.

Xenon ships can be boarded with either the xenon hunt mod or WWX mod for those who do not mind using mods.

I was able to board a 'K' at Cryptic Heart before I started the Beta.
My marines were returned to Skunk but I lost my Marine Officer.
There was another K that showed Board option but it was in the middle of a swarm of other K's.
Maybe this was a bug.

Actually, there are no Xenon built stations with interiors in Rebirth. If you follow the plot you'll know the stations you board were captured by the Xenon - hence the skeletons of the prior crew laying around.

I agree that the same logic that guides the Xenon to "kill all sentient beings" and create new ships just for that purpose, would mean they'd forego adding any living space aboard. "Classic" Terraformer ships though, they'd likely still have the originally build crew accommodation, purely because they never allocated resources to change it.

Xenon not capturable by conventional means is fine by me, though and alternate "tech" approach to taking command of them would be entertaining, though the player would player would never be able to land on one.
