Modify the Button/Run/Click() proc to determine what the user's current base_speed is and change it according to.

usr.base_speed = usr.base_speed == 3 ? 8 : 3

        makeit(mob/user)

                user.base_speed = 8

Your sleep(1.5) would only round either up or down, I forgot on my part, unless you've changed the world.tick_lag. I don't know how makeit(mob/user) is called, but what you're doing in the proc is practically pointless, if you think about it. This would only work for 1.5 seconds, unless that's how you want it to be.

This is what I meant when I posted what I posted:

Button/Run
    name = "Run"
    icon_state = "button-run"
    animation = "run"
    // when i said modify Click(), this is what i meant
    Click()
        // click is a built-in proc
        usr.base_speed = usr.base_speed == 3 ? 8 : 3
        world << usr.base_speed
        // ^-- translates to if the user's base speed is 3 change it to 8, else do the opposite
        ..()

"This would only work for 1.5 seconds"

This is the point , cuz is a macro button for a run command , you press -> you run(even if is 1.5 seconds) / stop pressing -> you walk .

And if you press continue , the character will have basee_speed = 8 -> 1.5 + 1.5 .... ( hou much you press ) , if you stop pressing base_speed come back to 3
