Johannes replied to me:
Class II was D in the old nomenclature, right?
Yes.
But mechanics will be hired and repair equipment will be owned by and large by companies thats businessmodel is to to do star port services.
"Sorry, all our teams are working on that Fat Trader. Now, if you were willing to pay for a rush job, something could be done."
Spare parts will generally be imported, and thoose that are not interchangeable from star ships to air/rafts will likely only be in stock in star ship size.
Starships carry air/rafts as part of their equipment ...
I also would consider it plausible, that some star ships have lower tech dishwashers installed, because their original broke down when they had been in a low TL world and they had to replace it there. Some tramp frighter style ships might intentionally keep some equipment low TL to make sure they can use low TL spareparts.
That would backfire once they do the annual overhaul on a high-tech world. Regards, Onno _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
