The Factorio developers claim that they didn’t have much issues with floats, beyond trig functions (which are in software). > Originally we were quite afraid of Floating point operations discrepancies across different computers.

We got away with implementing our own trigonometric functions. https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-52 https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-52
