Arriving in an unknown sector there was a Corvette just siting there spinning around seeing it had been abandoned i went and claimed it. and not a shot fired in anger, I was only in the sector to reduce the 3 Nividium asteroids to managable sizes for my mining ships. ive left it in the sector for the moment, yep the hull need a little repair and weapons are needed apart from that its all ok, And did i mention it also needs 5 x 200 shields, at least i have found my first abandoned ship in AP

I could be wrong but I think I read that in AP free ships are randomly generated and unique to each universe. Can someone confirm or refute this?

So abandoned ships generates when player enters a sector or when he reaches range of abandoned ship?

I believe that in X3AP the random derelicts & pandora tunings or generated when you start the game.

When the player starts the game.

So after you select your starting scenario, the abandoned ships are generated while the universe is loaded for the first time.

Unfortunately there's no way to obtain Kha'ak weapons to equip your corvette. There are likely other Kha'ak ships hidden in your universe, so you'll have to pray that those ones have some weapons.

The Corvette comes with "some" weapons. And yes placement is random at gamestart.

Not always. My Corvette was completely naked.

Could they be found anywhere? I mean is there some kind of restrictions: eg only in border sectors or maximum 5000km away from a gate?

Post by **Ketraar** » Mon, 23. Jan 12, 11:55

The Corvette is always "unknown"

I've spent few hours with a kestrel looking into every unkwown sectors in the galaxy. And then I did the same with savage spur and freedom's reach.
Didn't find anything. I'd like to take a look into the hub after all it's an unknown sector!

Post by **Ketraar** » Mon, 23. Jan 12, 16:17

HUB sector does not count, as you cannot get to it, yet anyway. Same goes for Freedom's Reach, as its not really an unknown sector, even if its says it is.

I used the explore sector command with my kestrel asking it to explore 101km around every gates and then waiting half an hour looking at my map.
I feel pretty unlucky sometime.

I think you can enter a second value in the map sector command, that makes the scout explore at a certain "height"...

Ive layed stat nav's all over the unknown and pirate sectors.
So far ive found 2 Khak M3's, 1 M4 interceptor and a couple of M5 scouts.
So far no CW ships have emurged.
ive also found 3 +5 engine overtunes and 1 +3.
And 1 rudder overtune +3.

I heard a wisper that there are 8 overtune boxes to be found can anyone confirm this?

Maahes · Post by **Maahes** » Mon, 23. Jan 12, 17:18

Yes there are 8 crates to find.

I've found some of the abandoned ships in Unknown and Xenon sectors and Race secotrs.
I think its only the overtunes that are in Pirate sectors.

A script is available to releave the location (I don't have the linl to hand but will edit if I find it). You can always save, enable script editor, run the script and screenshot the result. Then reload to keep the game vanilla.

Alternatively you can do something radical like, search!

Sorry but its scary how easy people like to spoil the game for them, I mean seriously, if you want to spoil it just go and cheat yourself some stuff directly, why bother?

Keeping it vanilla? Only in stats, me and your conscience know you cheated.

You mean find something out for yourself the hard way??

The internet has removed that function of our brain I'm afraid, evolution and all that.

To me there's a big difference in knowing where something is located and just creating whatever you want.

They're still limited in number, you just know where they are.

If i had a conscience, it would be clean

As for others I cannot say, to each their own.
