To reproduce:
1. Make the following locale entry: n-items=__1__ __plural_for_parameter_1_{1=item|rest=items}__
2. Launch the game and run the following command: /c game.print{'n-items', 0.5}
3. Observe the following output: 0.5 1

Expected behavior:
The "rest" form gets used, producing the following output: 0.5 items

Comment:
There should probably be more pluralization categories to properly support non-integer pluralization, but that's beyond the scope of a bug report. The proposed above fix would not get in the way of adding such categories in the future: since these categories don't exist now, there would be no conflict with existing mods should you wish to add them.

Thanks for the report. This has been broken for a long time and is unlikely to get fixed in 1.1. For 2.0, I refactored the localization code and adding proper decimal numbers support is on my to-do list.

I see. Thank you for telling me. Workaround time, I guess.

FYI, it doesn't understand negative numbers either.

This has been fixed for 2.0. All decimal numbers will match "decimal" or "rest" patterns. Negative numbers will behave as positive numbers.

That's great news! Thank you.
