More significant figures in power production menu.

Post by NotRexButCaesar »

I was recently testing my nuclear reactor blueprints, and was looking in the power menu to see whether they were producing full power or not. I noticed that there are only two digits shown; I think that having one more figure of accuracy would be enough to see bottlenecks, but would also (from my guess) not be too hard to add and not affect performance in a meaningful way.

This isn't just needed for power production. The rounding is bad in general. For example things are listed as 1.8K / min rather than showing the exact amount. This is bad when testing if builds produce as much as they theoretically could. Even small things can make a noticeable difference there.

I would also like to see more digits in the statistics for values greater than 1000. Maybe you can also display the exact value in a ToolTip.
