Weight unit

Would it be possible to have an option to show the character weight in kg, instead of lbs (Or have both shown at the same time, whatever is more convenient for you). Rounding it to make it look better in the UI, would ofc be fine. Like the starting weight of 125lbs (which as a Danish person tells me absolutely nothing, without looking up conversions), would be 56.70kg, so showing it as 57kg would be fine then.

It does ruin the immersion a bit, to have to constantly do mental math/check unit converters to be able to really tell what their weight is

Whoops, sorry about that. The funny thing is that the last game jam project I worked on (and never released) had a much more detailed character stats page, complete with height, weight, and B/W/H measurements, all designed with a toggle between imperial and metric in mind. Just one of the things I forgot about here in a rush to get a playable build out.

Next version will have a metric/imperial toggle in the game options - it’ll work automatically for the stats panel but I’ll have to double-check dialogue boxes, so a couple mentions might slip through the cracks.
