So if we know humans to have a comfortable temperature range of about 15 - 25 C, that's a 10 degree range. Let's say they have another 10 degree survivability range, so 10 - 30 C. That's 20 degrees range.
We know that avali can survive naked above 0, so if we set the upper bracket as 5 C, that puts their comfortable range between 0 and -10, with a minimum of -15. We know that avali are from Avalon's tropics, so a relatively high temperature bracket makes sense... I think?
Gah! This is so complicated! All I know is what temperature would make Rhaomi go "brr, that's cold!"
Edit: Rrg, and Avalon is under higher atmospheric pressure than Earth. Meanining that if an avali tried to work in standard atmosphere, they'd probably end up looking like this:
Man, avali are hard to work with in conjunction with any other races...
Hrm... Well I'm pretty sure Humans can survive more than 30C, just not very comfortably.
I dunno. And yeah, this is why Avali were originally intended to be their own thing. Only once Starbound came into the picture did they need to interact with other races... Which is also around the time the lore started being less and less regarded due to obvious mechanical issues.
Honestly, trying to make the Avali in your Machinima fit their lore perfectly is a flawed concept in the first place due to using Starbound's variation on the Avali, which at this point I think all of us and Ryu consider sort of a spinoff. Like Stargate: Infinity is to Stargate SG1, Atlantis, and Universe. Similar idea, but the lore and concepts are pretty borked.
Just go with what feels right. It's your Machnima. Doesn't have to follow the Avali lore just as it doesn't have to follow the Starbound lore.
