"Standard" equipment for ship's locker, vehicle and player character

Ok, Standard probably isn't the right word but this is the equipment list I've come up with from CSC that are desirable for a party's ship, vehicle and individual character. I want to put together a list of standard equipment a party should have when they start out and what they should be working towards over their early career. I assume players will be limited to TL12 equipment to start with and all players have 10KCr for equipment minimum.

I'd like comments on what is good and what isn't in the list. Also, equipment from other sources would be welcome.

SHIP’S LOCKER
A ship’s locker does not need to include a full inventory of items from this catalogue but neither is it a bottomless pit of supplies, tools and ammunition. The Referee can assume that to maintain licensed ship certifications, the following will be available:
• Emergency soft suits for the standard crew complement, plus soft suit and/or rescue bubbles for the rated number of high and middle passengers. (2 per stateroom)
• Tools including electronic, mechanical and starship engineer toolsets, bulkhead patches (ship tonnage /10), one iris valve opener, one portable airlock.
• Survival kits for the rated number of crew and conscious passengers. (TL10 2 per stateroom)
• One medkit per eight rated crew and conscious passengers. (Ship TL up to TL12)
If Referees and Travellers want to keep track of ship’s locker equipment, they can assume a ship will start with additional equipment (typically including more advanced vacc suits, additional tools and civilian weapons) equal in value to 1/1000 the cost of the starship. This can include fabricators if the ship has a workshop and if the Referee approves.
(A typical starting ship is a Far Trader and has a cost of 54MCr, giving the Ship's Locker 54KCr.)

Probably, but over the course of many adventures I've needed or wanted all of it.
Some of it is unreasonable, and I tried to Mark those. If you got all of the expensive versions of everything you're looking at something over 26MCr, so it's not practical to get everything but a girl can wish, right?
 
I see what you're going for. It's so comprehensive I wouldn't use it myself. I like players making their own choices. And as GM I like an adventure or two without full and complete loadouts, if the game is going to run long enough to get some adventures with the full loadouts.

There's definitely room for more focused starting equipment bundles, instead of everybody figuring it out every time. That's come up before. But it's a matter of someone breaking down and doing them all, and now I see our tastes won't all be the same when someone does.
 
I might suggest a few lists where it's like the ones above, but the max TLs are TL10, TL11, TL12 and TL13.
And then a note that the lower-TL items on the lists are manufactured at the same TL as the list, but the item hasn't otherwise changed from its TL of introduction. E.G., on a TL12 list, the electric welding kit might function as if it's TL10, but it's TL12 for the purposes of the list.
 
That list is way bigger than I would go for: I want the players to have the challenge of "how do we solve this?" then next time they're on a suitable planet they can find a gadget that would help, then finally the next time something similar happens they have the delight of "hah! Stupid GM! We bought one of these so we can fix this at once!" while I pretend to be upset that they have foiled my machinations.

I much prefer that to them pretending they are Kender and just happening to have the right thing for every problem in their magic bag. The ship's locker as I use it tends to have whatever the players have explicitly bought for it, plus some very basic firearms, medikits, emergency shelters, iron rations, basic hand tools, basic vacc suits and the standard stuff like iris valve openers and hull cutters for emergencies. Marooned on Marduk has a decent list for a shuttle, which I'd just expand a bit.
 
Just for reference:

Thread 'A Sample Starting Ship's Locker'

For my Starter Set campaign, the players are starting with a Type A2 Far Trader named the Windfall.
One of my players is well-read into Traveller, but hasn't played it much. The other is brand new to the system. This is what I've equipped them with as a basic, bare-bones, regulations-compliant ship's locker.
Note that not all this gear is one space. Stowage locations are noted.
Note that one player mustered out with an Air/Raft, which is not included in a Type A2 otherwise.
