I always use debug logs when writing plugins. Today I opened the log file and saw 1.2 instead of 1.3 (%.1f). So I spent a lot of time, to find which part of the code should be fixed. I think everything is fine with my code and it's format specifiers bug. But I have my doubts..maybe it's specificity of pawn language? I mean rounds a float to the next lowest value after division. What really is equal fModifier variable? Thanks.

PHP Code:

    decl String:sBuffer[24];
    
    new Float:fModifier = 1560.0 / 1200.0;        // 1.3
    FloatToString(fModifier, sBuffer, 24);
    
    PrintToServer("%f %s", fModifier, sBuffer); 


Result:

1.299999 1.300000

Welcome to the fun of floating point math.

Knock yourself out.

As a side note, if you use Format(sBuffer, 24, "%f", fModifier) instead of FloatToString, the values will both be 1.299999. So FloatToString must do some rounding at some point.
