I notice now on the usernames that it says for example [1.0k] instead of just our island level out full. I understand abbreviating it, but if we're going to have the .0 why not show it to the nearest hundred? Like my island level for example is 1566. Why not [1.5k] instead of [1.0k]? And if you'd like to keep it at the nearest thousand, why not just [1k]? I just find the .0 a bit misleading if it's being kept at the thousands.
There is currently a bug report up for this: https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/island-level-showing-in-chat-is-not-correct.175910/
But that's what that bug report is about, because andrew's description of ECCDEV-164 (which was created as a result of that report) says exactly what you are suggesting.
Ah okay my bad, someone else had said it was meant to be just as it is right now. I didn't read the ticket.
