Can you just do

if <key [space v] pressed?> then
wait (1) secs
if <key [space v] pressed?> then
do things
end
end

when [space v] key pressed
reset timer
wait until <not <key [space v] pressed?>>
set [time key pressed v] to (timer)

Why do you need this?

when [space v] key pressed
reset timer
wait until <not <key [space v] pressed?>>
set [time key pressed v] to (timer)

That workaround doesn't work properly

It works to get the length of time a key is pressed.

<(time key pressed) > [1]> // true if the key is held for more than 1 second

or

<not <(time key pressed) < [1]>> // true if the key is held for 1 second or more
