This is what i want to do:

Push button, 10 second countdown starts to trigger an entity.

Push button again (before entity triggers), countdown resets (starts over)

EG:

(Push button)....10...9....8....7....6 (Push button again) 10....9....8....

If
nothing is pushed, countdown goes to 0 then triggers an entity. Then
does nothing and waits for original button to be pushed to start
countdown agian.

Eg: (push button) 10..9..8..7..6..5..4..3..2..1..[trigger entity]....wait for next push.

I asked this in mapcore.net but nobody bothered replying, i assume they dont know how.

Hi Blackjackel,

Maybe noone replies because this kind of count down is impossible to do. I tried a few things to make it work, with nothing but failure. I consider myself as very unskilled; but consider noone is answering, I assume this problem is unsolveable.

I'm sorry I don't have better news for you.

Jeah, it might be old. But I figured it would be somewhat unpolite not to answer at all. After all the guys at mapcore.net didn't. Rude?!

No, it isn't rude.

Taking that the last time they were at this site was one day after this was posted and the user was created it wouldn't be rude at all not to answer the question.
