Strings don't respect the temp unit

Changed Note: to I'm fixing this up but I won't push it this update since the translations are being worked on right now.

For anyone randomly reading this, it may be useful to know that a change of 1 degree Kelvin is a change of 1 degree Celcius so the actual number doesn't change at all. It's only in the case of Fahrenheit that the numbers need to get scaled.

Well, then there's a unit issue. Screenshot attached.

If I create a void zone and try to fill it with oxygen, the default value is 320 and the result is 23.8°C (game is paused)

No idea what's the unit used, but it's neither Kelvin or Fahrenheit or the Celsius value would be (resp.) 46.85 or 160.

 

The two contexts are different. A change of 1 degree Kelvin is equal to a change of 1 degree Celsius.

In the case of Specific Heat Capacity it is telling you the amount of energy (the number of Joules) you need to change 1 gram of a given substance by 1 degree Celsius. So maybe it takes 2 Joules of energy to change Copper by 1 degree. In Kelvin, it would still take 2 Joules of energy.

What you're talking about here is the absolute temperature and 1 degree Kelvin has a different meaning from 1 degree Celsius, but the context is very different.

Hope that helps clarify things.
