Some technical question to Alvaro. When refiting units, how the decimal works?
In order to elaborate, lets say that an unit have a repair cost of 4.3 per strength point. So...
1)If I repair 1 str point, I will pay:
1a) 4.3*1=4.3(rounded to 4)PP
1b) 4.3(rounded to 4)*1= 4 PP
2)If I repair 2 str points, I will pay:
2a) 4.3(rounded to 4)*2 = 8 PP
2b) 4.3*2= 8.6(rounded to 8) PP
2c) 4.3*2= 8.6(rounded to 9) PP
3) If I repair 3 points, I will pay:
But if the cost of repair a strength point of an unit isn 4.6 PP, then...
4) If I repair 1 str point I will pay:
4a) 4.6*1 =4.6 (rounded to 5) PP
4b) 4.6*1=4.6 (rounded to 4) PP
4c) 4.6 (rounded to 4)*1 = 4 PP
5) If I repair 2 str points I will pay:
5a) 4.6 (rounded to 4)*2= 8 PP
5b) 4.6*2 = 9.2 (rounded to 9) PP
5c) 4.6 (rounded to 5)*2=10 PP
6) If I repair 3 str points I will pay:
6a) 4.6(rounded to 4)*3= 12 PP
6b) 4.6(rounded to 5)*3= 15 PP
6c) 4.6*3= 13.8 (rounded to 13) PP
6d) 4.6*3= 13.8 (rounded to 14) PP

ps: I'm aware that this can be one of the nerdiest questions that you have received, but I noticed an oddity when repairing the starting Italian depleted corps. So I need to be sure about how the engine calculate the costs before I make the other post (can be a bug or can work as intended)

If I remember it rounds down.

But the round down is done to value of refit of 1 strength point or to the value after adding all the points that will be refitted?

The refit is rounded down.
Then the cost is based on this which is again rounded down.

If I remember

So if 1 strength point of an unit have a cost pf 4.6 PP to refit this should work like this:
Refit 1 str point: 4 PP
Refit 2 str points: 8 pp
Refit 3 str points: 12 PP

Or would work like this:
Refit 1 str point: 4 PP
Refit 2 str points 9 PP
Refit 3 str points: 13 PP
