I was checking on all of my troops a few minutes ago, and I noticed that my general Divinira and six of my Lunarcits have decimals in their scores, in such a strange way that all of them have 15 digits. I presumed that the scores were only supposed to have whole numbers, so I decided to bring this out to see if there is something happening that shouldn't be. Thanks in advance for a reply.

They should at least only be displayed in whole numbers, in the very least.
'Course, the only way to even get such a buggered-y score is if you are placing all of your troops and retreating when you are still in the lead. Congratulations, Draggy, you're a bastard.

I know its not exactly on topic, but BURN!
Also, how exactly would retreating like that cause decimaled scores to be displayed? I guess it's not really important, but I'm curious.
Sometimes we are responsible for more than we bargain for. In a split second the entire tide of history can be changed. But is an ideal worth fighting for when you don’t know what you believe? Can the impact of a single person truly contribute to the Greater Good? Is a human life the fair price for one man’s idea of justice? The questions never end, the answers always out of reach.

Square rooting is used in that scenario. Otherwise, it is just plain ol' whole number math. * uses ThumbsUp on Battalon127 *

Wow! I didn't think there would be a specific method for getting such scores. Since it occurred, I've been thinking about how much more those queer complex scores would stand out to me compared to plain usual whole number scores, and they definitely seem appealing. That would probably be a goal for me to work towards: giving all of my troops longer decimal scores to make them look more unique.
