 I can't get him to go do carpentry, even though that's his main profession!
 How do I get him out of his office? --[[User:Tarsier|Tarsier]] 18:27, 6 November 2007 (EST)

	:::: In my experience, precision only needs to be changed from maximum whenever a stat has one more number added to it (and even, then, do you REALLY need to know if you created 5 or 9 total wealth on top of your 1,756,350 that is shown before updating?). Basically, though I've seen high precision constantly get updated, maximum precisions stays updated until your food starts going into the thousands or your created wealth (or some other stat) goes into the ten/hundred thousands or the millions (or whatever increases the amount of digits).		:::: In my experience, precision only needs to be changed from maximum whenever a stat has one more number added to it (and even, then, do you REALLY need to know if you created 5 or 9 total wealth on top of your 1,756,350 that is shown before updating?).
