I wanna know how i would make it so that you press a key for too long it will automaticly release the key. For example like i have my key set to f key and set to that i you hold the key it will do nothing but when you released the key it will print something, But i have the problem that you could hold the key for as long as you want , what i want do is that when you held the f key for like 3 seconds it will automaticly released the key and print something. If you happens to know how to do this please let me know,I canât find any toturiols about this one. 
local start = tick()
repeat
until not Holding or (tick() - start) >= 5

local UIS = game:GetService('UserInputService')
local currentTick
local cooldown = false
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if gpe then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F and cooldown == false then
spawn(function() local current = tick() repeat task.wait() until current >= 2 cooldown = false end)
currentTick = tick()
repeat wait() until timer >= 3 or currentTick == nil
currentTick = nil
-- do something
end
end)
UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if gpe then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F and currentTick ~= nil then
currentTick = nil
end
end)
ill use variable as tick so ill make sure when inputended is released
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gp)
if gp then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then -- Change 'E' to the key
if tick() >= 2 then -- Change '2' to how long you want to hold the key
-- Do stuff
end
end)
Sorry it dosenât work for me, When iâm holding it dosenât do anything it omly do something when i released the key.
game:GetService(âUserInputServiceâ).InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gp)
if gp then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then -- Change 'E' to the key
if tick() >= 2 then -- Change '2' to how long you want to hold the key
print(":D")
end
end
end)
I wrote thid and it just print no waiting at all
here my questions and notes here
- Did you replace
- do somethingto the thing you wanted to do it?
â if yes what lines of code did you put after replacing-- do something?
notes:
- Idk if is it possible to do a automatic release
I replace --do something with print(âFâ)
did the error threw or just ignoring it?
No erors OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 30 Characters
I only gave you an example, now you gotta write the code where it says âDo stuffâ
I also donât even know what you want to do when holding it.
I want to make it so that when i hold the key for a 3 seconds it will print something
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Key = Enum.KeyCode.F
local KeyDown = false
local WaitTime = 3
function dosomething()
warn("Hello")
end
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(key)
if key.KeyCode == Key then
KeyDown = true
spawn(function()
local Time = os.time()
repeat
wait()
until not KeyDown or os.time()-Time >= WaitTime
dosomething()
end)
end
end)
UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(key)
if key.KeyCode == Key then
KeyDown = false
end
end)
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Duration = 3 -- held time
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input, GPE)
if Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then -- change the enumarated keycode if 'E' keycode isnt the keycode for your code
local Time = tick()
repeat
if (tick() - Time) >= Duration then
print("success")
-- do something if player held 'E' key for 3 seconds
break
end
task.wait()
until
not UIS:IsKeyDown(Input.KeyCode)
if (tick() - Time) < Duration then
print("failed")
-- do something if player didnt held 'E' key for 3 seconds or just the player pressed it
end
end
end)
Thanks! it worked.
