Hi, here you go, it’s working (at least the JS, is just translated for the C#, i dind’t tested it). You can adjust what you call a “long click” by changing the 0.4 value to whatever you want :slight_smile:

JS:

private var t0:float;
private var longClick:boolean;
private var shortClick:boolean;

/* INITIALIZATION */
function Start () {
	t0 = 0;
	longClick = false;
	shortClick = false;
}

/* READ AT EACH FRAME */
function Update () {
    if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){
           t0 = Time.time ;
    }
 
 	if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(0) && (Time.time - t0) > 0.4){
        longClick = true;
	}else if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(0) && (Time.time - t0) < 0.4){
		shortClick = true;
	}
	
	// Don't forget to reset to false shortClick or longClick as soon as you use it
    // Unless what it will be still true at the next frame and cause issues
}shortClick = false;
}

C#:

float t0;
bool longClick;
bool shortClick;

/* INITIALIZATION */
void Start () {
	t0 = 0f;
	longClick = false;
	shortClick = false;
}

/* READ AT EACH FRAME */
void Update () {
    if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
		t0 = Time.time ;
 
 	if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(0) && (Time.time - t0) > 0.4f){
        longClick = true;
	}else if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(0) && (Time.time - t0) < 0.4f){
		shortClick = true;
	}
	
	// Don't forget to reset to false shortClick or longClick as soon as you use it
	// Unless what it will be still true at the next frame and cause issues
}
