Question

I’ve tried

keybd_event(keyByte, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYDOWN, 0);

Thread.Sleep(3000);

keybd_event(keyByte, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

But it only presses it once and pauses, I want it to simulate holding a button. Example if I’m simulating player two in a car game I’ve made and it wants to turn the car while moving forward. The curve is 90 so i then want to hold it for 3 seconds. How to i do this?

EDIT: tried

                DateTime start = DateTime.Now;
                TimeSpan timespan = DateTime.Now.Subtract(DateTime.Now);

                if (timespan.TotalMilliseconds < duration)
                {
                    timespan = DateTime.Now.Subtract(start);

                    keybd_event(keyByte, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYDOWN, 0);
                }

                keybd_event(keyByte, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

but without result

Answer 1

You should set a timer for 3 seconds and when it fires, you should release the button.
