Lets say I have: local number = 5.123456

How can I output only the first two numbers?

Please keep in mint it's a non-native MTA function, you will need to copy-paste the whole lot then use math.round to round up a number.

And in the "manual" way:

1 - turn it into a string

2 - take the 4 first caracters of it (in "5,12" there are 4 caracters)

3 - turn the result back into a number

local number = 5.123456 
number = tonumber(string.sub(tostring(number), 1, 4)) 
outputChatBox(number) --outputs 5.12

local number = 5.123456 
number = tonumber(string.sub(tostring(number), 1, 4)) 
outputChatBox(number) --outputs 5.12 

Code should be this:

local number = 5.123456 
number = tonumber(string.sub(tostring(number), 1, number < 0 and 5 or 4)) 
outputChatBox(...) -- 5.123456 outputs 5.12 
outputChatBox(...) -- -5.123456 outputs -5.12

Totally right, I didn't think about it.
