There seems to be no way to show floats below 6 decimal points. I tried using bit manipulation on the float and it doesn't seem to give accurate numbers at all.

float value = 0.0000001
PrintToServer("%e", value);  // prints e

I think you can use:

PHP Code:

float value = 0.0000001
PrintToServer("%.2f", value); 


(2 being the decimal places to display)

That shows 0.00

Although, since floating point numbers aren't particularly accurate, you may still run into issues.

I don't know how low it will go so I don't want to do %.1000f

Floats are 32 bit in sourcemod so you can't have that much precision, I'd recommend just rounding it..

SM doesn't support %e (or %g).

It's pretty unclear what you mean by this. If you mean how many digits you can specify there, then as many as you want. If you mean you really want to remove trailing zeroes, then you should sprintf it and cut them off yourself. (If you want scientific notation like %e, you would also have to do it yourself.)

Floats have their problems, but a 32-bit float can exactly store 2^-126 (or 2^-139 for denormals).
