Pressure unit “pl”?

Hello, I changed the unit of pressure from “pl” to “atm” for two reasons:

  1. I have no idea what “pl” is (except for Polish as language code suffix)
  2. It is assumed that the PresMat Barometer returns the value in atm.

OK Xzise i was ignorant of the si unit of atmospheric pressure and thought someone had put "at the moment" in the text. no harm :) -[[user:SamuelJenks] 20:05, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

The SI unit of atmospheric pressure is Pascal (Pa) ;) I thought you meant “pressure level(s)”. I would love if this game actually uses SI completely (they use atm for pressure and some other non SI unit) but the sensor says “1” at Kerbin's surface and 1 Pa or 1 kPa would be very low at least for air breathing engines (we don't know what kind of atmosphere Kerbals needs to survive). — xZise [talk] 10:50, 21 June 2013 (CDT)
