Not whole numbers for upgrade cards

These Knots sure are knotted up!

Reported multiple times, known bug

haha... I don't know how you managed to get something to give you a non-integer that but I can say they're stored internally as a double, so its not completely surprising to see it show a non-integer, just nothing should be modifying them except as an integer

[formal flint]

Huh, why is it better to store them as a double rather than an int? Just curious

[unborn terrace]

I'm not sure I'd say its better, but its the way they've been stored in the game since forever ago. If I were to rewrite that system I would probably store them as an uint16 or uint32 since the counts are unlikely to ever get ludicrously huge (uint8 is too small). However, we also store a bunch of other numbers including the various currencies in the same thing so its just easier to use a double for everything for now. Plus double can exactly represent all int32 values

[formal flint]

Ok, fair

If the currencies are stored in the same thing, it sounds a lot easier to store this as a double too

I was gonna post a bug report for this but you already did. Anyways here are my pics of it lol.

[unborn terrace]

do either of you know how to reproduce the issue? ( Also I've filed a copy of this bug as CELL-1835 )

[harsh atlas]

Not at all but it won't go away even days later

it's just stuck this way

also Idk if it would work but maybe if the game recognizes a non-integer card, as a temporary work around it just forces it to the closest integer?

Can you send me a DM? for troubleshoot.

[harsh atlas]

sure

[harsh atlas]

Hmmmm lol

Sent this to a friend and he sent this back https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic#Accuracy_problems

I don't understand it though 0_0
