#IMTU #Traveller factoids: There is no generated gravity in the setting (below TL18). Consequently, nearly all spacecraft use 1G acceleration for passenger and crew comfort. A ship acclerating at >1G would be viewed with suspicion. During warfare, most of the soldiers are deployed immedately to the surface to avoid long periods in 0G. Ships in Jump are in 0G for that week.

@sudnadja But don't the deck plans normally have the decks parallel to the direction of thrust?

@peterdrake Yes, in most #Traveller(s) they are. I don't use any of those designs, ships are more #StarFrontiers style - they will look like tail-sitters an intend to have the normal of the decks parallel to the thrust provided. (also, most of my ships tend to be spherical). I thought Traveller was a bit too much age of sail and not enough hardish-sci-fi, particularly for a game that has a reputation of being hardish-sci-fi.
