Is there a way to get rid of high numbers in a game such as 5.15678e+06 because i dont know how and i really want just regular numbers like 500000 instead of things like 5.15678e+06 I.E Exp Needed and so on. so is there a way to fix this?

Use a combination of round and num2text(); 
stat("EXP needed","[num2text(round(src.EXPneed,1),7)]")
if you're worried about the cosmetic value in stat panels or whatever; num2text() has a second argument that determines the amount of "significant digits" before using scientific notation. If you want to round these values for use in other procs or whatnot, round the required variables before ending the proc.

        stat("Experience:  ","[num2text(round(src.exp,1),7)]")
        stat("Experience needed","[num2text(round(src.expnext,1),7)]")


IT still doesnt do what i want it to

Then increase the second argument in num2text() until it does what you want it to.

stat("EXP needed","[num2text(round(src.EXPneed,1),7)]")

how exactly does the increasement work?

In the instance of the example I provided, 7 will display seven digits before it starts using scientific notation. So a value of 10 would display ten digits before scientific notation, a value of 2 would display two digits... etc etc.

Or, if you're going for completeness:

proc
    num2comma(Number)
        Number=round(Number,1)
        if(Number<=0||!Number)
            Number="0"
        else
            if(Number>=0&&Number<1000)
                Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,4)]"
            else
                if(Number>=1000&&Number<10000)
                    Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,2)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",2,5)]"
                else
                    if(Number>=10000&&Number<100000)
                        Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,3)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",3,6)]"
                    else
                        if(Number>=100000&&Number<1000000)
                            Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,4)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",4,7)]"
                        else
                            if(Number>=1000000&&Number<10000000)
                                Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,2)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",2,5)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",5,8)]"
                            else
                                if(Number>=10000000&&Number<100000000)
                                    Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,3)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",3,6)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",6,9)]"
                                else
                                    if(Number>=100000000&&Number<999999999)
                                        Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,4)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",4,7)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",7,10)]"
                                    else
                                        if(Number>=1000000000)
                                            Number="[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",1,2)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",2,5)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",5,8)],[copytext("[num2text(Number,10)]",8,11)]"
        return Number

after it goes past 1 bil, just replace it with "YOUR TOO HIGH LVL, GET A LIFE!"
