No fulel units

[Teilnehmer]

My suggestion is to get rid of the confusing fuel units and use tonnes only.

We need tonnes to calculate weight ratios anyway, so why do we need different fuel units?

[Murph]

Not necessary, and nothing that confusing about them. The main fuels are 1.0t per 200 units (or 0.5t per 100, or 5kg per unit, if you prefer that). In the years that I have been playing KSP, I have never once manually calculated fuel weight from quantity, I've always let the game calculate it for me (via KER or MechJeb, usually).

It's not broken, so it should not be fixed.

I think that 2 units should be used, cubic meters (m^3) for fuel tank volume and kilograms for mass of current fuel load. Displaying current fuel mass would be very useful during mission and design process.

Personally I would be glad to show the quantity in term of mass. I think it would make it easier to estimate fuel/range ratio intuitively.

But anyway we should have a stock DeltaV reader (see signature), which would naturally become your main tools for mission planning and navigation.
