How to Display recurring decimals accurately?? #223

When I modify the 'Real Points Per Level' and 'EffectBonusMultiplier,' if I input a decimal (for example, 0.75), after saving, upon checking again, it becomes an infinitely repeating decimal (such as 0.749999921678). How can I make this numerical value display correctly?

This is how floating point numbers work. Not every number is possible to represent accurately, and it approximates to the nearset value.
