Artifcial gravity and lightworlders

Dr. Beckenstein · 08-27-2018, 06:02 AM

According to Gurps Traveller, artificial gravity shows up in the Traveller setting at TL 8.

A lot of the worlds in the 3rd Imperium are simply to small to have an earth-like gravity, and some are to big (unless the GM fiddles a lot with the rules).

So, how common is artificial gravity?

Are the habitats on small worlds (esp. asteroids) equipped with "grav floors", or are there a lot of what Gurps space calls lightworlders, walking broomsticks who can not even crawl under normal gravity?

How do you handle this in your Traveller Universe?
