Ah yes, nearly everyone knows this character, portrayed by Harrison Ford in the earlier Star Wars trilogy. I like Han Solo because he is a no nonsense kind of guy. The Force? Pshaw! "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid." If there ever was a world where people could levitate stuff with a wave of the hand, that would be the one place I would avoid visiting.

Approaching the Seedy Space Bar at Ceanbibi, Lara'tan.<br>
Commander Kaine is rated *Deadly*. Currently in chart 5 and has completed all the native missions. Kaine has a fondness for this octant and has decided to stay awhile. He commands the ship you see above, the Cougar ST from SoloTek Industries of Ontiat, christened the <i>Sword of Azure</i>. This ship suits him to a T. Not much for cargo hauling, but fast and agile as a snake ready to strike. She only has the one forward [[Military Laser | Military Grade Laser]], offset when overheated by a heavy duty [[Railgun OXP | Projectile Cannon ]]. The main console now houses new HUD software from Neolite Inc of Inera. He operates mainly as a bounty hunter and courier, but he frequently seeks out those who deal in precious metals and gems. On his journeys through the space lanes he will not hesitate to defend those harassed by pirates, assassins, nor the fearsome Black Monk Gunships. He will never make a million credits, but he will have fun all the way to ***ELITE***.<br>

I re-programmed the main script, "oolite-randomHits.js", to limit Seedy Space Bars to only those anarchies where the economy type is, Poor Industrial. The maximum number of OXP locations per galaxy, and therefore unique bar names, is reduced to 16. That occurs only in galaxy four mainly because that chart has only four of the eight possible government types. As for the script's spaceBars array, I kept some names and invented new ones to my liking:<br>
