I have several questions concerning spacecraft design in MT.
(easy one first) For determining medical crew required, do you figure
in the frozen watch as "passengers"?
Spinal Mounts: I'd like to see how big a TL15 Meson-A spinal mount
would be. It shouldn't be the size of the current A model given in
the chart.
I feel that fuel requirements for ships with agility > 0 should not go
up for more than 8 hours worth of power plant time. It seems silly
to have enough fuel to keep up agility 4 for 30 days. I remember seeing
a discussion on fuel requirements, can someone enlighten me on what
was decided? It is generally accepted by most people?
FYI: I wrote the craft design program that Joe will be using to check
ships in his TCS campaign. I just used the stuff found in the Referee's
Manual (so no rockets!) and would like to know what general assumptions
people make when designing craft. Do you put in 3 computers? How many
back-up comm. devices? Do you put one (or more) of each type of
comm. device in the craft (i.e. radio, laser, maser)?
