Hi,
I was building a coolant module thing for a sci-fi build in my game, and I had the idea to put a status monitor on it that would show some things about the coolant and fans. I am planning to have it display the RPM of the fan, but I don’t know how I should go about doing it. Could someone help me? Thanks in advance!

So, AngularSpeed is measured in radians/second, and in case you don’t know, one radian is equal to 2πr, which equates to ~6.28 radians in a circle. All you need to do from there is divide the AngularSpeed by 6.28 (or 6.2832 if you want to get it very accurate) and you get Rotations per second. Multiply that by 60 to get Rotations per Minute.
For example, let’s say your AngularSpeed is 5. Dividing it by 6.28 results in ~0.792 which is how many rotations it does a second. Multiplying it by 60 results in ~47.5, which is Rotations per minute.
