Hello,

It means you don't have enough raw materials to get food/weapons produced.
The amount of raw materials you currently have is presented in so called "E-Notation":

Yes, I understand what is 'e^x'


But 0 divided any number is, tadaa, 0.
0/5.6843418860808e-14 =0

But OK, let's pretend there is no 0 to make a division:
5.6843418860808e-14 = 0.000000000000056843418860808

So again 0.

Or my math is wrong?

Dear citizen,

Some decimal floating point numbers cannot be converted into binary ones without loss of precision.

So how many food raw materials do I need to buy? Because this is clearly out of my brain understanding.
