Number precision is too low

[amirah]

The reported precision in a lot of places is as low as 2 digits, which can be a 10% difference. It's understandable, that it's kept this way for the small icon overlays with limited rendering space. However, in a lot of headings / tool-tips without space constraints, the precision is also limited to two digits for no apparent reason. As far as I can tell, there is no way to get precise numbers.

E.g., there is an attached 'Electric network info' report. The satisfaction info heading only has 2 digits. The steam turbine tool-tip is also restricted to 2 digits. I'm not aware of any reasonable workaround to get accurate information.

At least for the circuit network (e.g. logistic network content), this issue was somewhat fixed and combinator tool-tips display exact amounts.

I haven't used for a while so i'm not familiar with the new versions, but there are mods that allow to read the electric network info in the circuit network , if that is better handled for your purpose, like : https://mods.factorio.com/mod/energy-combinator where the demo display uses nixie tube for max precision. As a work-around. To me it shows some players are interested by the suggestion.

3 significant digits look indeed better, even better an option to configure the precision would be nice.
