Description

Called every frame on the client. Called about 5-6 times per second on the server.

You may need to call Entity:Spawn to get this hook to run server side.

You can force it to run at servers tickrate using the example below.

Returns

1 boolean
Return true if you used Entity:NextThink to override the next execution time. Otherwise it will be reset to CurTime() + 0.2.

Example

Force the think hook to run at the maximum frequency. This is generally only used for anim type entities, if the entity has to play model animations/sequences.

ENT.AutomaticFrameAdvance = true -- Must be set on client function ENT:Think() -- Do stuff self:NextThink( CurTime() ) -- Set the next think to run as soon as possible, i.e. the next frame. return true -- Apply NextThink call end
