usermessage.Hook( "DermaPanel1", DermaPanel1 )

Can anyone help? When I press E on it, 4 open instead of one

Use this instead of your ENT:Use:

function ENT:Use( ply, caller )
    if (ply.my_Ent_cool or 0) > CurTime() then return end
    ply.my_Ent_cool = CurTime() + 0.5
    umsg.Start( "DermaPanel1", ply )
        umsg.Short( "1" ) 
    umsg.End() 
end

Also you should use net messages instead of usermessages

Did you try to search this issue before? I think it gets posted almost 3 times EVERY WEEK
You have to use SetUseType(SIMPLE_USE)

Edit: Didn't know [URL="https://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Entity/SetUseType"] ENTITY:SetUseType[/URL] existed!

Thanks! I've changed it so it uses Derma_StringRequest . How would I put the String that is inputted on the entity using 3D2D?

With variables, a bit of networking and some simple coding ingenuity.
