 ===== Tech Levels =====
-I'm used to technology levels in GURPS, which are a bit different to those in Traveller, so I've clarified things here for my own use, for what a typical culture of a given tech level would be like.
+I'm used to technology levels in GURPS, which are a bit different to those in Traveller, so I've clarified things here for my own use, for what a typical culture of a given tech level would be like. A basic overview is available in the [[https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Technology_Level|Traveller Wiki]], but I'm trying to pull together multiple sources to get a comprehensive list of technology.
 Note that I assume that a Tech Level is pretty much what a world can produce or at least maintain itself, not necessarily what is available. A world on a major trade route will tend to have easy access to whatever technology is available on neighbouring worlds, at least for small scale commercial items.

 Larger freestanding holographic images are possible, models in shop window or full 3D vids.
+% communication coverage on a world is pretty common, unblocked by buildings or terrain.

 Large building-sized free standing holograms are possible. Streets are full of holographic advertising, building fronts will tend to display whatever they desire, though they are obviously holographic in nature.

+Cheap power and efficient gravitics means that it's just as easy to build a flying building as it is one sat on the ground. Cities may be a mixture of tower blocks and floater plates carrying whole districts. Realistic looking holograms can be used for advertising or art.
+Travel across a world, and into orbit, is trivial and common place. Commuting to orbit (or to ground) on a daily basis is not unusual. Grav belts are easy to obtain, the only thing restricting their use is that it's far more comfortable to sit in an air car.
+Cybernetics is reliable, and looks just like the real thing. Skill augmentation is possible, and people will be seen with head jacks for plugging in new skills.
+Humanoid robots are becoming practical, though they are obviously robotic in nature. They are more often housed in military or industrial shells rather than true humanoid shells.
