| The first Traveller star charts were designed as simple dot maps.
|
False
|
Book 3 has a full hex map. Adventure 1: Kinnur has a full hex map of Regina Subsector. The Spinward Marches (1979) has a full sector with maps. Judges Guild published (1981) four sectors with maps.
|
TBD
|
| Many early legacy publishers created a variety of settings, maps, and materials, some of which has never been officially placed within the OTU.
|
True
|
|
TBD
|
| As computer programs grew more sophisticated, better data was created including the well-known Sunbane data set.
|
Questionable
|
This should state the where the Sunbane data originated
|
TBD
|
| In 1984, the Atlas of the Imperium was published, which still sought to preserve the legacy data.
|
False
|
There is no evidence the data used for Atlas of the Imperium captured any information other than the existing GDW publications (Spinward Marches, Solomani Rim)
|
TDB
|
| It developed into Sunbane.
|
False
|
The Genii data was independently generated by Digest Group Publications
|
TDB
|
| In 1989, The data was uploaded to Genii.
|
True
|
|
TDB
|
| In 1994, the files were hosted on the Sunbane FTP server.
|
Questionable
|
The files were hosted on Sunbane prior to 1994
|
TDB
|
| Sunbane was eventually included as a date set for the early Galactic design software, which could create entire sectors in Galactic File Format.
|
True
|
|
TDB
|
| Random generators began to be created in this period. The software is very clunky and dated by today’s standards.
|
True
|
Galactic is one of these generators, and the primary one for data generation. This section omits the work of HIWG to enhance and extend the Sunbane data.
|
TDB
|
| For the most part, the legacy data was not overwritten much in this period.
|
False
|
The publication of TNE and T4 changed the underlying generation system. Official publications made significant to the legacy data.
|
TBD
|
| H&E largely superseded Galactic although many still use that venerable software.
|
False
|
The two packages are used in equal amounts by various Traveller authors.
|
TBD
|
| Many homegrown programs and web sites also exist to create star systems, sectors, and even galaxies.
|
True
|
... but useless. This should include some of them as I have in the legacy page
|
TDB
|
| Many publishers overwrote the legacy data in this period, particularly T20 and MGT products.
|
Questionable
|
The time range between 4. and 5. overlap the whole of the Marc Miller's Taveller publication, which may need to be included here. Many of the third party Licensed publishers didn't overwrite any data. So "many" is questionable.
|
TDB
|
| T5SS was created as an update to the previous data sets including the most common one, the Sunbane set.
|
True
|
The time range for 6. overlaps with 5., making statements in the two sections difficult to reconcile.
|
TBD
|
| Several companies including T20 and MGT have slowly been upgrading parts of Charted Space.
|
Questionable
|
T20 was not publishing in 2007, so wasn't part of the upgrade process.
|
TDB
|
| FFE oversees the entire process.
|
True
|
|
TBD
|
| T5SS has updated the UWP's of thousands of worlds to be more consistent with current astrophysics knowledge.
|
Incomplete
|
T5SS has several goals for their updates. It would be better to just link to the full list
|
TDB
|
| A T5SS manual is part of an effort to somewhat standardize the chaotic system.
|
Incomplete
|
This should include a link to the T5SS manual
|
TBD
|
| FFE has re-canon-ized some of the legacy data in this current, ongoing period.
|
True
