How did you get that?

Sounds more like a glitch if anything.

I increased the density, mass, to super high, then I increased temperature.

That's fun.

If you make the numerical values go above their max value it is marked as infinity. Here's the programming reference for the data type (double) we use to store most values:

Oh yeah... not a planned feature. :)

Is it because it went above 2147483647, since there's negative mass?

Oh nvm, it includes rounding, so it would be a ton higher.
