Quit buying troops in even numbers. Random numbers keep teh bug from happening.

Maybe its 0's that cause the bug then, the scaling could be buggering it up (if it's still in use in the code) and trying to scale 0 numbers?

Its a rounding error.

Yes, we know this is a painful and very annoying bug. The problem is also VERY difficult to fix given the way we have the database defined.

Say, could someone please find the other occurrences of this bug and post a link here?

I forget how we stood on this. Does anyone have a solid idea of what is causing it? Yes or no, someone please PM me with more info. Thanks.

You can't fix it, unless you're going to edit PHP. Its not limited to FaF. This happened on QMT and other sites. For some reason, when they released the new version of PHP, it can't seem to handle rounding properly.

I know that, but someone posted a workaround, I think, some months ago.

Yeah, but it failed. It didn't work in the long run.
