Loc

A loc (not to be confused with locks) is a special script that is automatically created when a user is initialized and can be used to breach the associated user. A loc cannot be deleted or modified through architect commands. will show all locs as PUBLIC HIDDEN. The loc's security level is based on the locks that are loaded by the user. will provide the loc of the calling user if they are initialized. "Loc" is generally pronounced "loke" by the community, as it is short for "location".

When accessing a loc, you will be presented by locks and other security. When all security measures are bypassed, the user will be breached. At this stage, NPCs typically "pop", causing it to automatically transfer all GC and upgrades to your user if you have space then delete itself. With other locs, you will have to manually transfer GC and upgrades using an upgrade.

Loc scripts are made up of 3 parts: the user name, a loc prefix and 6 random alphanumeric characters. For example, could be a valid loc. The list of loc prefixes are as follows:
 * access
 * entry
 * extern
 * external
 * info
