What happened in 1.3? Why did they rename the sector? Some programmer's mistake while copy-pasting changed the fate of a whole sector?

It still says "Collusion" in every other language file except L044 to this day!

Some digging through old posts uncovered this:

Yes. It seems the voice actor misread the name and we didn't notice until it was too late. Not much we can do about it I'm afraid.

Yes, that would be an option, though it might annoy those who have already made fancy game maps!
Okay, I see, this makes sense. The sector was intended to be named Patriarch's Collusion the entire time, but they had to change it due to VA's mistake.
It still is named "collusion" in most of the different languages the game is translated into, except Japanese, which was released long after 1.3 - 族長の決断 (決断 【けつだん】 (n,vs) decision; determination; (P)). Probably Chinese as well, but I haven't had a chance to verify that.

Anyway, makes me feel kind of bad for inhabitants of said sector. Having to change the name of their system just because the most popular navigation software in the universe spells it the wrong way :S
