So I am trying to create a script for creating star trail effects for my astrophotography, but when ever I try to record an action of transforming the image ever so slightly photoshop doesn't record the action correctly and I am left with a different recorded action than what I changed. Anybody know what might cause this issue?

Show us your problem. You need to show the document size and resolution your recorded the action transform step on.  State the settings you used recording the Actions step and expand the Actions step in the action palette so we can see that the settings are not the setting you used recording the step.  I have never seen a step recorded Where Photoshop did not record the users settings correctly.  I have seen Photoshop recoded image size  steps  and canvas size step where only the  width or height was recorder because  the resize was constrained or the user only change the width or height the users may have set the other side value in the step's dialog  but the value entered was the current size so Photoshop did not record a change in size for that unchanges side.  If you wrote a Photoshop Script you need to show the transform statment you coded.

Are you confused that the information in the panels (including Info panel) is displayed with a maximum precision of 1 decimal place, and in the lines in the options panel, the precision is two characters?

 

Or is that not what you mean?
