[Help] Display the whole value of items.

Post by Langberg8800 »

Hello. Is there a way to not shorten the numbers in the game, but display the full value, ect. 23499 Light oil, and not 23.5K
Maybe a mod? I've searched, but found nothing.

Thanks in advice.

No, it's hardcoded into the game. Mods can't change that display, although they could probably add their own window that displays the actual values.

There's a bit of a workaround: If the object in question can be connected to the circuit network, you make a display to show the exact number (it's a non-trivial construction in vanilla though, and the display itself is a bunch of Lamps, so it takes up a LOT of space).

Usually, if i really want to see the full value of something, i just split that into several values each with 3 numbers like so: A = x / 1M, B = x / 1K % 1K, C = x % 1K. In this case value of x = 2003004 takes form of A = 2, B = 3, C = 4. Or you can keep B, M and K prefixes in values if you do it this way: A = x, B = x % 1M, C = x % 1K, so it takes form of A = 2M, B = 3K, C = 4.

Ah okay, just really wanted to show full values, wish they could change that, as an option. Well, thanks for answers :-) We can close this now.
