Here is the code
Sorry for my english hope you understand me
local UserInput = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Before = tick() --Current tick time
local Pressed = false --If key was pressed before
UserInput.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key,Processed)
if not(Processed)then
if(Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.B)then --Key, Enum.KeyCode[Key]
Before = tick() --Current tick time
Pressed = true --Key was pressed
print("Key was pressed")
end
end
end)
UserInput.InputEnded:Connect(function(Key)
if(Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.B)then --Key, the same as above
if(Pressed)then --Check if Key was pressed before
Pressed = false
local HeldTime = tick() - Before --how long a key was held
print("Key was helded for: " .. tostring(HeldTime) .. " seconds")
end
end
end)
