Hi Reju,

Code units are the units that are used within the simulation. If you’re running a cosmological model, then these units are specified via the choice “G = 1”.

To convert to something more digestible, I believe you can do:

vr/pf.units[“mpc”]

or whatever unit you’d like, if not megaparsecs.
