[0.15.x] wrong display of tooltip for robots

[fregate84]

the tooltip (when you put the mouse on a flying robot) said for power usage : "3.0kW + 5.5kJ/m"

Should be : "3.0kJ + 5.5kJ/m"

No it should not, the one value is the constant drain the other is the additional drain per travelled distance. You could write: "3.0kJ/s + 5.5kJ/m" but that would just be a convoluted way to say the same thing.

I don't understand.
Agree that in power, we have a static part and a moving part. But why the staatix part should be in watt and not in joule ?

Because Joule is a unit of energy, not power. The energy in the robot is draining so it loses energy over time, therefore J/s = W.

Ok !

I dont think a lot of people know that w = j/s.
But ok.
