Localization & Text All Noted Tracking Station Bugs For Celestial Body Information (So Far)

[ShadoxFilms]

(Current for EA Release Build, Last Edit: 3 March 2023)
Hi, Figured I'd compile my own noticed issues along with the others that people have noticed here on the forums, if you notice something new, note it down!
I'll do my best to organize these.

Side note: It does look like some parameters, like Eve's Sea Level Pressure being changed from KSP1, until someone tells me otherwise, I won't label this as a bug.

Units of Measurement
Surface Gravity: Units are labeled as m/s, when the value given is in G's (1.00034 vs. 9.81 for Kerbin)

Circumference: Values given for the physical characteristic "circumference" make no sense, I have tried figuring out what these values are, It's not related to the planetary radius, SOI or orbit, I'm honestly at a loss (props if you can figure out what the devs are trying to show here)

Atmosphere: Units here are given as (atm), when the values given reflect the densities, which have units of (kg/m^3). Atm is a unit of pressure where 1 atm = 101,325 Pa

Eccentricity: Value should be unitless, current UI shows it having units of degrees

Localization / Typos
General Typos In descriptions: Grammar is hard, I completely empathize. Other times, describing astrophysics is even harder.

Display
Planet order does not make sense: If it were by orbit, order would be Moho, Eve, Kerbin, Duna, Dres, Jool, Eeloo. It's obviously not alphabetical either.

In the the tracking station, distance units are showing as "k/m".

It should be just "km".

Kerbin shows gravity 1m/s^2, while it should show 9,81m/s^2 and (1g).

This is wrong for every planet in game. I just failed one mission because of wrong in-game units

Incorrect circumferences listed under physical characteristics in the tracking station. For example, 22 ly for Kerbal, 10AU for Eve, or 7AU for Kerbin.

When you go to look up the gravity of a Celestial body in the Tracking station for example for Kerbin it says 1.00 m/s^2. Shouldn't it say 1.00 g or 9.81 m/s^2 (if that's the acceleration for kerbin idk) ?

It also says that Jool has a gravity of "0.80 m/s^2" which, given its mass, doesn't seem to be right.

I hope this is helpful enough and that I didn't mess up the units in my head.
