{{expansion past|width=50%|1=In the past, truesec values in the range (0.0, 0.5) were rounded half up, i.e. rounded down to 0.0 because all numbers in that range are below 0.5.  This was a bug, because EVE considers all systems above a trusec rating of 0.0 to be lowsec but the game displayed their security level as "0.0".  This bug not only caused some confusion (there were sentry guns within apparently Null-Sec systems) but also some problems in the form of inadvertent security status loss in what seemed like Null-Sec.

This bug was fixed in the [[Expansion#Revelations|Revelations expansion]] <ref name="Revelations I">[https://www.eveonline.com/updates/patchnotes.asp?patchlogid=99 Revelations I patch notes]</ref>, and the game now uses the rules above.  This ensures that any system displayed as "0.0" is truly Null-Sec.  Some third-party utilities may not know of the above rules, and so may incorrectly identify some lowsec systems as Null-Sec.}}
