Easter Egg, Planet of the Apes

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Not quite, the same thing is duplicated in Omicron Gamma.

EDIT: Just re-checked and looks like in my game, I can only get to the monkey/robot planets in Gamma . In Alpha, I only get the system with the sun.
Looks like its either random or whichever you use first. (I used the one in Gamma first.)

yes yes...I'm being a moron today. I realized that I had the omicrons backwards about halfway home from work

Here's what I think is interesting, there are all these applications about now that let you explore the systems via the Freelancer Game files right? They render a universe map, show all the connections, planets, bases, jumpholes, et al.

Well... there are FOUR "Omicron Major" systems. FOUR! Two Omicron Minors, two "Unknown" systems.. and a few other wacky mistakes.

Almost looks to me like some systems shuffle around depending on certain circumstances. Odd. Very odd.

I believe the duplicates are for the specific single player missions. Systems change a bit during the course of the story, and instead of dynamically modifying an already existing system for it, seems like they just made duplicates with the modification.

Or maybe not. That's just one possible explanation.
