Exact vs Rounded resource counters

[CaptainMaim]

I'd like to ask why the resources on the status bar on the top of the screen are now rounded to 10k and so forth, instead of using "10,000.0" or something like that.. I'm sure that there are those who'd really perfer that method. I'd like to ask if a toggle could be inplace so it could be switched over to show the exact resource count. (To the first decimal place if not just the first intiger.) (Toggle could be in game or in the settings program.. I really don't care.)

Please CaptainMaim, don't spam the forum with feature requests... if you're going to do any requests put them in one thread.

besides this request you're asking is a bit pointless ..
what diference does it make that your income is not 10040 metal but 10k ???
lol.. at the point that your working with "k" the small numbers dont make a diference anymore

although the old
expenditure = income IF expenditure>income
sucks, i mean u could at least calculate the deficit and display that instead >,<

[CaptainMaim]

Sorry about the spamming... I just thought I'd try something different... I was going to do it all in one thread (like I usually do)... Yes I'll go post it on the Wiki.

(I'm only complaining in this thread because in TA it didn't go to the K system until 100K .. But now the numbers get very small so very fast. (Course XTA uses very, VERY large numbers. 30k for a single energy storage unit?) I just enjoy seing my economy in a more exact manner..

I guess it's nice to know the exact amount but, really what difference does it make?

If you have 10k energy, it's within 5% of the exact amount. It's going to change by that much within a few seconds or so anyway.

I also don't see why it shouldn't be up to the player. Have a toggle on the settings panel under "Misc. GUI Options" that says "Exact Resource Quantities Displayed." Of course, I'm not the one who has to program it...
