    Ship design - rounding and non-standard components

    Power plants can be as small as 1 PP. I design ships with decimal point down to .01 without blinking.

    Traveller, TAS, and AI

    The same can be said of all this AI talk.

    Modules

    But he’s not proposing that. He’s making a hull with cargo space. I’m just not convinced.

    Modules

    Not for a cargo container that is 98% cargo. I’ve mellowed on the ships, but not the container.

    Modules

    Or pods. I have a lot of ones like that in the ship’s link in my signature.

    Modules

    @Geir might not be the right person to ask. Maybe @MongooseChris. Pods are not modules and have different, if no longer stated, build rules. Reverse engineering them from the pods in Element Class Cruisers and Opening Moves, they can have any system other than drives. I have pod versions that...

    Traveller Release Schedule 2026

    I see a lot of cool stuff in the schedule (added today) and I'm looking forward to them. With the powers starting to get "empire" books, I keep hoping to see the Vargr get some love. They occupy a lot of border space and deserve an in-depth look.

    I see it as the biggest merchant houses moving vast amounts of freight. It has a column for profit via freight using the published rates and is even profitable at J6. As the robotic pods can pilot themselves to and from the ship, the layover times are reduced, and I figured they could get 2.8...

    Adventure-Class Ships

    You should either bump ACS to 3,000 or drop BCS to a minimum of 2,500 to close the gap.

    Traveller 5E

    This bozo is spamming the board with this snippet. Too bad he'll be able to do it until they boot him tomorrow.

    Travellers Needed! High Guard Updates

    I have no issue with it staying 2,400 as T5 also has that number. It just means Adventure Class Ships need a tweak.

    Travellers Needed! High Guard Updates

    I just noticed that the definition of Adventure-Class ships changed from 2,400 tons in High Guard 22 to 2,000 tons in Adventure-Class Ships. You should probably make sure it gets changed in High Guard.

    Adventure-Class Ships

    I was making a freighter at the upper end of the Adventure-Class Ship’s category and noticed that the definition changed between High Guard 22 and Adventure-Class Ships. It used to be up to 2,400 tons but seems to have dropped to 2,000. I suppose I can see that, but it is a change that might...

    Appreciated. Off topic for this thread, but I enjoyed applying the formula to my civilian Warmonger (Hercules, a merchant tender) and the 50,000-ton robotically piloted pods I created for it. Proof my design would be very profitable.
