Extended Generation
As data is generated for these worlds, I will extend this page with additional data, see later for:

• Easan
• Garrison
• Kamiri

Notes
Population levels are generally higher than the generator would normally create.  I did not go into extended system generation as I am not sure how relevant it will be to solo playing.
Highest Tech Level is 12 as I really like this Tech Level being the best available - only Jump 3, robots just coming in.  Varied weapons.  Helps to limit the game a little.

Significant Secondary Worlds
Rather than go for extended system generation, I also rolled for a small chance of a significant secondary world for each system.  Seven systems ended up having a secondary world:

Ixobis system: F21061D-6  (Gas Giant satellite)
Magbis system: G513466-8 Mi Co
Hestrolia system: G523666-B  (Gas Giant satellite)
Easan system: G300119-B Co
Garrison system: H50051A-9  (Gas Giant satellite)
Kentland system: F100565-6 Co
Xuyen system: G50356D-7 Mi

Who knows, they may come in handy as somewhere to go in-system.

World regions
Borrowing from Star Smuggler, I have 14 planetary area types.   Each planet will have anywhere from 1 to 10 of these area types, sometimes two or three of the same type.  The number of locations is loosely based on population and the types are based on the world codes and trade codes.  Rather than define specific locations and map out the planets such as cities, jungles, etc, this way adventures can happen on planet quite a bit, moving between areas.  Encounters will be different per area, and I am thinking of how to incorporate cargo DMs into the area you are buying/selling rather than just the planetary ones (e.g. if you would get a DM of +7 on selling due to Agricultural world, maybe selling at the spaceport only gets you DM+3 and being in an actual rural area gives you the full DM+7).

T4 Pocket Empires - World random events, relationship code and popularity
I am using a few things from T4 Pocket Empires for a bit of backdrop on what is happening in the subsector.  It won't be taxing as it will just happen in a spreadsheet and i hope it will add a little bit extra to the solo campaign and should assist in the story telling.

Random world event
Each week, I will roll 2d6 and on a 11+ one random world will suffer a random world event (as per Pocket Empires).  In Pocket Empires is was 11+ each year and with 22 worlds in the subsector, events will be a bit more common (not a bad thing).  I looked at the Mongoose Traveller Campaign Guide random events but they are just too weird.

Relationship Code
I did roll up each planets relationship with every other world in the subsector.  A few are at political attack but with worlds jump-3 away.  There are about 250 relationships (just numbers between 1 and 15 where 1 is war and 15 is nearly a single unit).  In Pocket Empires, you do metatasks that increase or decrease relationship levels.  I will each week randomly roll (with a small chance) for increases or decreases in relationships. 

Popularity
I am using the popularity code from T4 pocket empires to assist in the ups and downs of the world as the random world event does use Popularity occasionally in the results. Only going to do it once a game year so not too taxing. I did not generate the Popularity for each world using the very intensive calculation from Pocket Empires but did a very simplified randomisation.
