Or maybe it's the equivalent of 8.8oz of TNT? Or the weight of the grenade itself?

Crunching some numbers the ounces of TNT equivalent seems to check out.

Supposedly an m67 grenade has the equivalent yield of about 108 grams of TNT.

8.8oz is about 246.4 grams. So this would be a grenade which is 2.5 times more powerful than today's M67 grenade.

I'm more annoyed that even in 2330, the settled systems still uses imperial measurements.

I'm not, it feels messy, like the rest of the game. Hell, I kinda want intermodal containers (The steel shipping boxes that get sent across the pacific, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermodal_container)

Those are measured in feet. 20/40 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8 feet 6 inches tall.

Hell, I kinda want to make a space trucking game where you transport them, but there's already a few space trucking games.

There are ship cargo containers that use at least a similar crate to those.
