Is there a way to change temp units from Fahrenheit to Celsius?

[Athenas]

I just can't find an option to change that.

[Athenas]

Excellent. Thanks for your reply.

[grondilu]

Or Kelvin, please.

Given the frequency in which this questions keeps repeating in the last month, i'd like to propose you move it juuuust a liiiiitle bit higher on the list. BUT on the other hand, this is just a selfish whish from a german who neither can comprehend nor translate imperial measurments :D

Well the temperatures themselves seem pretty placeholder at the moment. There seems to be something special about zero degrees fahrenheit for no reason. Guessing the UI temperature unit option settings might be added when the full TMS system gets finalized.

That's fine by me, going from "To-Do list" to "an upcoming update" is higher than i thougt :D

[Athenas]

That's great news!

Thanks.

Not to be a negative nancy but Fahrenheit? Are distances in the game measured in furlongs? Is mass measured in stones? Glad to hear players will be able to switch units.

By the way, I have the impression that almost every system melts down at very low temperatures. They red-line at about the temperature necessary to bake a cake, that is, if I can ever understand Fahrenheit (can't even write it, lol). The only systems that I agree on the red-line figures is the batteries (they seem to be Li-Ion, like a cell-phone) and the MTS plasma (not the system).

But I have to point out that, a fusion reactor running with it's core at stove temperatures seems reeeeeally cold.

The LENR, if that's what you're referring to, is based on reported results of LENR's said to be in testing (and if they are actually fusing is under debate; but they DO create power); and these seem to be working at temperatures fairly close to what is represented in RogSys....

Yes, I was refering to LENR. So, as I understand it, you are creating a cold fusion nuclear reactor. If RogSys uses cold fusion, that's ok with me, but I would consider it more sci-fi than hot fusion.

If LENR employs conventional hot fusion, like in tokamak reactors (Wikipedia[en.wikipedia.org]), then it should heat the fuel plasma to about 800 million kelvin (in case of deuterium-tritium fuel) or more (for other fuels).

This reminds me that the function of a nuclear reactor is to produce heat, usually to generate steam, which is transformed into electric current by a turbine or by a thermopair to extract electricity directly from the temperature difference, like the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators used by NASA's deep space probes (like New Horizons[energy.gov]) and shown on The Martian movie. If the LENR powers a steam turbine, this would be an interesting subsystem to be managed by the pilot, adding to the complexity of the spacecraft.
