[Enhancement suggestion] Config sliders too fine, could use marker stops.

Simply put, the precision of the sliders is very high, making it difficult to get the desired setting.

For example, the water tank activation is not allowing me to set it to 75%. The closest I could get before I gave up was either 74.998% or 75.001%

Having slot markers and certain values would be nice as well. (For example, each 5% for the water tank.)

I realize alpha testing is happening right now and this won't be gotten to in quite a while. Just putting it in before I forget.

This might actually get addressed this week. I share your pain. After a few minutes you just give up because you just want a nice round number but the precision is too high and nearly impossible to to achieve. It's supposed to be fun, not frustrating.

Looking at 1.13+ on this. Basically this would call for a tickable slider. Probably wouldn’t hurt to limit decimal places as well. The whole NBT slider system is going to get a rewrite anyway. I want to add more GUI functionality to Numina since there aren’t many GUI libs for Minecraft and even less for 1.13+

That actually sounds like a good idea, especially if other mod authors start using Numina specifically because it's a decent-to-good GUI library for M1.13

BTW, there are items that integers suffice, for example, armor points.

Armor points is actually a double in the Minecraft vanilla code. That being said, the config slider for armor points was removed in 1.12.2 versions since weight was removed. Weight was removed simply because it doesn't "fit" with the mechanics of the rest of Minecraft. There is a weight mod, but it requires manually configuring the weight for every single item.
