    Utilitarian Star System Generator

    You might be right, but I'll be honest, I took a brief look and seem to have some notes about various things I tried that didn't work out too well for extremely compact systems like these. In other words, this is going to require a lot more brain power than I have available at the moment. No...

    Orbit# help

    First orbit# is at the MAO, second is MAO + Spread, third is MAO + 2 x spread, etc. Keep in mind there can be empty orbits, and also Orbit#s less than 1.0 get divided by 10, so if your'e at 0.3 + spread of 2.1, you'd actually only add 0.3 + 0.21 to get 0.51. I believe there was an option to...

    Agreed - options are good! :D

    You are correct, however it is not a bug but an intentional choice to handle the edge case when the spread is very small compared to the number of planets in the system. In other words, this is an example of a system where the planets would end up super clumped together using the math as...

    Thank you so much, this looks great! Your PR has been merged.

    Custom Ship: 400 ton VIP Courier

    Not who you asked, but I personally use GIMP (a free photo editor that is maybe slightly worse than Photoshop but very usable, and free). Here's the process I used to create a template that can easily be reused to build different deck plans: Open a new project Use e.g. A5 template for the...

    What type of ships are GMs/PCs looking for?

    How about an in-system racing ship? No jump, no guns, just pure thrust. Like the Razorback from The Expanse series. Also, and I'm sure they've been done in one or more of the existing published works, but cheap and scrappy pirate (or bounty hunter / police / etc.) ships focused on ambushing and...

    New pre-career events

    I find it gratifying that 666 on your Life Events table allows checking for psionic potential. C'est très drôle, ça. Tiny suggestion: 66-3, Government!, would imo be better if it simply gave a contact, as you already have a SOC+1 option in the same sub-table.

    Thanks to user makario, fixed an edge case that was broken due to a typo on my part where Class IV Typ O stars should have changed to Type B, but weren't. Due to downstream effects, this may result in unpredictably different output for any previously generated seed that would have run into this...

    Show me your sophonts

    My daughter read this series called The Land of Stories before the first time we played Traveller together, and she kept telling me about this low-gravity world called Lollipopagust or some such where insects grew super huge, from the super happy larvae called blissworms to the extremely...

    150-dTon Modular Transport

    I think OP's design looks like something that would probably be done in the real far future, especially for ships where having the entire hull armored and sealed as one unit isn't critical - things like haulers, explorers, miners, and perhaps even some military ships. Is it 100% Core/HG-22...

    Thanks for the detailed information, I was able to track it down and push a fix. What was happening is due to the location of the planet so close to the star, the atmosphere type was rolling in the first column of the Hot Atmospheres table on page 94, gets a 5 for Thin atmosphere, but then also...

    I copied the format from the WBH, so delineate each with a colon, e.g. M0 V:M2 V.

    It's totally possible, yeah, but someone other than me will have to do that - I have no interest in setting up and maintaining a web page, sorry. That's why I wrote a tool that can be run completely offline. ;)
