    Hey all, I'm having trouble remembering/finding how to make a function happen while I hold down a UI button. Nothing complex, just want to move the player in one direction when I hold down the UI button. I know how to do something when I press a UI button down, but not when I hold a UI button down.

    The magic sauce you seek is called an 
    EventTrigger
    and you attach it to an otherwise vanilla Button.
