I don't want to sound nitpicky but using celcius for temperatures instead of farenheit really confuses me. I never had to learn that and it's confusing for me when when generating planets and reading reports. Is there any way to give an option to switch to farenheit and imperial measurements instead of using celcius and metrics. Those are systems I really never had to learn. It's easier for me to use farenheit when trying determine how hot or cold a planet is.

I must admit I would be at a loss if playing a game where Fahrenheit degrees and imperial measurements are used. Go and convince people to buy the game so that VR can have enough financial security to implement this feature! (Please don't take this the wrong way, I do sympathize but can't help doubting this fix will end up at the top of the todo list, but then again I don't really know.) In the meantime it's really quick to look it up online.

Celsius is widely used and only USA nearly is alone for that one. + US engineers require to know both.

I'm afraid the developer would get lost with your arbitrary imperial unit system just like the rest of us [:D]

It is fairly simple, but to help make it easier to gauge comfortable temperatures I've added a few ranges below. 0c is 32f 20-29c is 68-84f 30-39c is 86-102f 100c is 212f HTH

Let me just ask something so I can get my head around this and try to understand. If 0c is 32f how does it convert by 1 degree? In other words what does 1c equal in farenheit. Seems like an awful big jump when Oc is 32f and 20c is 68f. What is 10c? Half of 20c would be 10c and half of 68f would be 34f. But that can't if Oc is 32f. It's so confusing. I'll just stick with what you got until I can print out some kind of chart. I live in the US and metrics really weren't taught when I was in school.

As an US expat, I learned to double the number and add 32 to c to get f. So 20c is about 72f.. not perfect, but close enoough.

I live in the US and metrics really weren't taught when I was in school. 1c = 33.8f, the actual formula is (C * 1.8) + 32 = F. No worries, I'm old enough to remember when the US gov was putting speed limit signs on the interstates in both MPH and KPH. Back when there was a push to go metric. I've been involved with engineering my entire professional life, so this is second nature.
