Entering Numbers

When the game asks for an amount, it shows two numbers in brackets, like How many? (0; 40):.

• The left number is a suggested value. Press Enter to accept it.
• The right number is the most you can pick. Type > to fill the box with that maximum. You can still edit it.
• k adds three zeros as you type. Press 1 then k and you see 1000.
• m adds six zeros. Press 2 then m and you see 2000000.
• b adds nine zeros. Press 3 then b and you see 3000000000.

If you type a number larger than the maximum, the game lowers it to the maximum when you press Enter.

Very large numbers

A number of a billion or more is shown in short form with a capital B, to keep it inside its column: 1.0000B is one billion, and 1.8473B is a little over one and four fifths of a billion. The four digits after the point are the part below a billion, cut off rather than rounded up, so a figure just short of the next billion never looks like it got there. You still type these numbers in full, or with the b key above.
