What are the reasons for KSP not using SI units?
2015年4月26日 · No - kilograms are SI units, but that's the exception. SI units allow you to do physics calculations using standard formulas without any adjustments. For example: Work energy = Force * distance. This equation gives Work energy in Joules if you use Newtons for force and meters for distance.
Units of measurement. - Kerbal Space Program Forums
2012年10月11日 · This has been bugging me, but what are all the units for measurement used in KSP? I know what speed is (says it right there), and height, and diameter of rockets (though that seems slightly implied, but works all the same).
Which SI Prefixes does KSP Use? When do Unit Transitions Occur?
2017年2月5日 · They are at the end of each relevant numerical display, and will show the correct SI units. I can make the displays support all units (as well as "m.S" and "ΔV"), but it will require more work to add the extra characters. Don't ask me …
Vessel — kOS 1.4.0.0 documentation - GitHub Pages
Units are expressed in: (Megagrams * meters^2) / (seconds * radians) (Normal SI units would use kilograms, but in KSP all masses use a 1000x scaling factor.) Justification for radians here: Unlike the trigonometry functions in kOS, this value uses radians rather than degrees.
How do I change metric to US or UK (Imperial) measurements
2018年3月17日 · Ksp just helps getting used to SI units. Took me a while to see "through" the m/s and see the km/h
What are the units for Ksp and why are they not always included …
2016年12月15日 · Ksp = ([Ca 2+]/1M)([OH-]/1M) 2 which has numerically the same value as your Ksp. However, I like to keep the units, as it's a useful check on whether you're getting the powers right.
Weight measurement? :: Kerbal Space Program General Discussions
2015年1月18日 · More generally, scientists, engineer and science related stuff uses (or really should use) a standardized unit system, the System of International Unit (derived from the metric system). The international unit of mass is kg, hence the metric pound.
Wouldn’t it be cool if we also had imperial units?
2023年4月13日 · As an imperial units user with 4,000+ hours of KSP 1, I mostly just ignore my velocity and accomplish colonizing the Kerbol system without really “understanding” my velocity. I just know when to switch rapier modes when the acceleration for my SSTOs is low, and just add m/s ΔV according to the ΔV map to get where I need to go.
Will KSP 2 use SI units for resources? - Prelaunch KSP2 Discussion ...
2019年10月29日 · KSP uses SI units for lots of measurements, except resources, which use poorly defined units, the worst examples being liquid fuel, oxidizer and electric charge. For a game with so much realisum and educational potential this seems like a missed trick.
Specific impulse - Kerbal Space Program Wiki
2023年1月3日 · KSP uses the duration format for I sp. If an engine with specific impulse (in seconds) is generating newtons of thrust, the fuel it burns every second will weigh newtons on Earth (the planet whose is used to convert the unit of specific impulse into "seconds").
