Is it possible to change temperature from Kelvin degrees to Celsius?


Recommended Posts

I've been playing KSP on science mode and when I was using 2HOT thermometer I noticed that display shows ~288 degrees. I thought it was a bug :mad: because I thought it was in Celsius, but then I noticed in the information for Kerbin's climat on The Map that it's actually in Kelvin :confused: So I started to think how to change it back (in earlier versions the display was in Celsius) and since it is much more easier to check the actual temperature rather than subtracting it by 273.0 degree each time, I wanted to ask you guys: Is it even possible? And if it is, then how?

Give me please some advice

:D

It wouldn't be possible to change the temperature units themselves to be in Celsius, as the game calculates temperature flux using Kelvin (it would require a lot of retooling among the base code).

However, it should be possible to make a modded thermometer which simply displays the temperature minus 273K, which is just Celsius. I unfortunately do not know how to accomplish such a task, as I am no modder. Perhaps you could ask someone in the modding subforum?
