Due to my tech-raiding times and the war I now have 250.32 tech. For a guy with OCD like me that is unbearable! :wacko: I want it to be 250 and loose the hated .32 but there is no possibility in the game to do that! I can't buy tech to make it a round number, I can't sell tech and I can't aid .32 tech because it only accepts round numbers. Now I could go and try to raid tech until I get to a nice round number but that is quite a gamble + when I attack someone nowadays I normally just win 2.0 tech :blink: Can we please make something in the game so you can actually get to round numbers of tech?

yeah, why is buying tech different than buying infra (other than the cost)? We want round numbers! ^_^

I think the thing is consistency, really. I for one don't care if I have a round number, but I can completely understand the desire.

If we have decimals in place for a given variable in certain parts of the game, why not have decimals in place for that variable in all parts of the game? Consistency is what we should be going after, regardless of whether tech is available to the hundredth or as an integer.

This problem has plagued as well. How about we implement the same system we have with Infra, to Tech? Wherein you may just type in an arbitrary number up to 10.

use the pull down menu to buy tech. you should be able to get to a round number in just a few purchases. i hate partial units of tech, too. i used to do this after every war in which i won tech that ruined the whole number

How does that work? You can only buy tech in units of 0.5 :mellow:

really? i haven't bought tech from anywhere but tech deals in quite a while. it used to give you different amounts like .48, , .74, .9, 1.02, etc.

i guess that won't work anymore if you can only buy in units of .5
