MGT Only: Ship Design: Computers. Question...?!

[Redcap]

Um. Is it just me, or is the mass figure for ships computers missing from the core rule book?!

Ship design doesn't use mass, but uses volume (displacement tons).

And computers in Mongoose Traveller aren't the room-sized computers of previous versions of Traveller. They don't take up any space of their own in the ship.

re Mass vs Volume - yep, my bad. Been a long day

So, effectively, it's all distributed computing, then, the space taken by the consoles all over the ship contributing to the whole, with the only central bits being the storage, then? Yeah, I can work with that

Thanks
