Auto Sprint with Hold Time

This Lua script for Rebind hardware input enables auto-sprinting by holding the W key for a configurable duration. It uses System.Time() and Input.IsDown() to manage the sprint state and HID.Down/Up t

local cfg = UI.Schema({
    enabled = UI.Toggle(true, { label = "Enable" }),
    delay = UI.Slider(1000, { min = 500, max = 2000, suffix = "ms", label = "Hold Time" }),

    if key == "W" then
        wPressTime = System.Time()

    if key == "W" then
        if sprintActive then
            HID.Up("LCtrl")

function OnTick()
    if not cfg.enabled or not wPressTime or sprintActive then return end
    
    if System.Time() - wPressTime >= cfg.delay and Input.IsDown("W") then
        HID.Down("LCtrl")
        sprintActive = true
    end
end

end

This script automatically presses and holds Ctrl (Sprint) when W has been held for the configured duration. It works by:

Recording the time when W is pressed
Checking each tick if W is still held and the delay has elapsed
Engaging sprint (holding Ctrl) only once
Releasing sprint when W is released
Cleaning up in OnBlur if the window loses focus

The delay is configurable from 500ms to 2000ms via the UI.
