How much health precision do you need? Make hp an int. Or like a /64 fixed point.

Congratulations, you just introduced a new damage threshold / resistance threshold / etc where things effectively do no damage.

Fixed point would not have helped here. Integer would only have helped because dividing first would break immediately.
