[0.98b Bug] Negative zero value in trade

from Elemental Forums

This might just be a rounding problem, but it's annoying. Trying to trade a tech treaty, it told me that the perceived value was -37. So I added 37 gildar to sweeten the deal, and now the perceived value is -0. Even though the value is 0, the trade still won't go.

Also seen the value "just" being 0 without a trade being possible, on the same screen.

Probably some hidden decimals.

This problem still exists in .98b.  I've edited the original post to change the release level.

Please take note about whether you have the sovereign background that improves trading, and/or how much influence you had in certain situation.

My gut tells me its the fault of influence affecting trading values.

I still see it too

Sounds like this can be fixed with a floor function.

When I saw it in beta 4 it was with a custom sovereign who did not have any trading buffs.  In beta 5 I saw it with Procipinee.

I think If you add one more gildar all will be well

I want a floor to move around on as well.

Atleast it should say "-1" instead of "-0".. that would feel better
