Hello FP,
I wanted to code an entity today, which uses some vars for times etc
but when I spawn a 2nd entity, it sets both entities vars, how would I go about it making entity specific ones?
entity.MyVariable = "blah"
Where entity is the entity object.

Do not make your variables like ENT.blah in the entity file, use self.blah in ENT:* functions.
like in the init function?, besides if I create vars there, they arent accessable in other functions eg ENT:Draw :x

Yes, like the Initialize function. They aren't accessible because you are probably trying to access a serverside variable on the client, which will never work and you have to network in any way you prefer.
Initialize is a SHARED function ( called on client in multiplayer and on server in any case ), ENT.Draw is a CLIENTSIDE function, meaning it is only called on client.
-nvm-
[QUOTE=whitestar;48488668]the problem is, how would I retrieve local vars out of the function to create the vars? >-<[/QUOTE]
Wat? The purpose of local variables is to be inaccessible outside of the scope where they were defined. If you want them to be accessible outside then define them outside of a function. What exactly are you trying to do anyway? Can you show us an example?
