==History==
 
 
 
The Spaceway L1 is the route that Loonly planet advices to traders that travel from Lave in the Old Worlds region to Lerelace in the Xexedi Cluster. Of course Lerelace is reachable via other routes but Loonely planet describes the shortest one. In the famous book 'great travels in Galaxy 1' the great and not so great places are described in detail. From the icy cold temperatures of Qitiri to the warm red hells of Iscence. Loonely planets has included planet ID photo's for new commanders:

It is also rumoured that the next edition of Rough Guide will also feature some of the planets as this route is probably one of the first treks a new commander will embark on. The route was first described by commander Trekquri of Xexedi in the pre-navigational console era.
 
 
 
==Safety first==
 
The fact that it is a spaceway doesn't mean that it's safe. There aren't any highway police or any other special facilities (yet). The commander is especially advised to be extra careful on the dangerous Aronar passage. This is a very dangerous Feudal world. Pirates also know that traders have to pass this planets as there is no other possibility (hence the name Aronar corridor on the map). So take extra precautions for this planet. Traders are also adviced for safety at Xexedi. Just the fact that it's a Cosmopolitan tech 14 planet doesn't mean it's a safe place.

2. After installing v1.1. delete the System Redux config directory that is in the directory of Famous planets v1.1.
 
 
 
3. Unzip the contents of this package in the Famous Planets_v1.1. oxp directory.
 
For example: ( Oolite172/AddOns/Famous_Planets_v1.1.oxp).
 
It will then add only the new content into the existing oxp installation.
