Lok

Lok is an arid world of deserts, sulfur pools, mountains and lava fields, populated by Humans. Its economy covers food, technology and luxury goods.

Lok is a star system in the 25th Anniversary patch 3.0.9770. It takes the slot that the original game gives to Kirdo III.

History

Lok continued to shelter pirates and other shady characters fleeing the law. Its lawless character drew many groups, with criminal syndicates and renegades running operations from the planet. Despite this notoriety, it stayed out of the wider war between the Rebellion and the Empire. Still, its position and population gave it weight in the underworld, as assorted parties profited from the black market and illegal trade that thrived there.

In the game

In the patch's default ("compatible") galaxy the system keeps its slot's sector and map position. The patch calls its sector the Wild Space sector; the original game calls it the Xappyh sector. The patch also has an optional "accurate" galaxy that changes map positions only.
