[yt-users] RAMSES units bug in yt-3.0

Hi,

Just to say that in the latest version of yt-3.0 (i.e. since various 
fields were renamed or re-implemented), I've found a bug in the 
implementation of "cell_mass", which is giving results that are too low 
in my runs; I believe the issue is that it's missing a factor of 
pf["boxlen"]**3 (which is of course only a problem if boxlen is not 1). 
The previous "CellMass_Msun" worked fine. If I get time I might take a 
look and issue a pull request, but otherwise I'm just flagging this in 
case someone else runs into problems; you can just manually multiply the 
result by pf["boxlen"]**3 until it's fixed.

Cheers,

Sam
