Data Type

The data type used for intelligence and sabotage type missions on the ascended server is Integer (I'm presuming) so when entering values even if you put 9,999,999,999 etc, the highest the system will register is 2,147,483,647 as that is the highest value an integer can go due to the 32bit system...

Seeing as the numbers in ascended are stupidly big, you may want to consider changing the data type, if someone has 6 billion assassin planets trained and you want to run over the top of them with more - Well you cant because the highest number registering is 2,147,483,647...

use a long, or a double, long should suffice though.

Yes you can ;) it may say its only sending in 2.1 bil but its actually sending in the amount you typed in.

[spoiler]First I sent in 3 bil and got the failed message.

Second I sent in 3.5 bil and it went through:

Forgotten Unknown Shadow planet fleets on mission: 2147483647
Your assult strength on the enemy Intelligence planets and fleets: 1337700000000000
Enemy estimated Shadow defensive strength: 1147500000000000
After crushing through their Shadow defences, estimated strength left for military planet and fleet eradication: 190,200,000,000,000
Enemy Conqueror planets eliminated: 0
Enemy Interlinked Conqueror planets eliminated: 31538765
Enemy Defender planets eliminated: 0
Enemy Interlinked Defender planets eliminated: 34999999


Own Shadow planet decimated to worthless rock and destroyed by the enemy Shadow planet fleets during the mission: 140000000[/spoiler]

But I do agree that it needs to be raised.

Ascended server needs to lose 2 or 3 zeros to save admin and our eyes
