Script edit help please, simple I am sure for scripter

[azzdayz]

Hey guys I am sure this would be very simple, but I am not sure what the correct way of coding it would be.

I want to take this code and add a simple restriction in it. AKA....... IF 60 meters from itemplotpole THEN get no _menu1 option

Like I said it should be pretty simple to do, just not sure how to word it correctly.

//Repairing Vehicles
    if ((dayz_myCursorTarget != cursorTarget) and _isVehicle and !_isMan and _hasToolbox and (damage cursorTarget < 1)) then {
 
        if (s_player_repair_crtl < 0) then {
 
            _vehicle = cursorTarget;
            dayz_myCursorTarget = _vehicle;
 
            _menu = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Repair Vehicle", "salvage\repair_vehicle.sqf",_vehicle, 0, true, false, "",""];
            _menu1 = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Salvage Vehicle", "salvage\salvage_vehicle.sqf",_vehicle, 0, true, false, "",""];
 
            s_player_repairActions set [count s_player_repairActions,_menu];
            s_player_repairActions set [count s_player_repairActions,_menu1];
 
            s_player_repair_crtl = 1;
 
        } else {
            {dayz_myCursorTarget removeAction _x} forEach s_player_repairActions;s_player_repairActions = [];
            s_player_repair_crtl = -1;
        };
    };

take a look at:

and

am on phone so can't get too fancy :)

Here' s the fancy version :P

//Repairing Vehicles
if ((dayz_myCursorTarget != cursorTarget) and _isVehicle and !_isMan and _hasToolbox and (damage cursorTarget < 1)) then {

	if !(s_player_repair_crtl) then {

		dayz_myCursorTarget = cursorTarget;

		_menu = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Repair Vehicle", "salvage\repair_vehicle.sqf",dayz_myCursorTarget, 0, true, false, "",""];
		s_player_repairActions set [0,_menu];

		_plot = nearestObjects [player, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 60];

		if !(count _plot > 0) then {
			_menu1 = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Salvage Vehicle", "salvage\salvage_vehicle.sqf",dayz_myCursorTarget, 0, true, false, "",""];
			s_player_repairActions set [1,_menu1];
		};
		s_player_repair_crtl = true;

	} else {
		{dayz_myCursorTarget removeAction _x} forEach s_player_repairActions;s_player_repairActions = [];
		s_player_repair_crtl = false;
	};
};

LOL ya I can modify code, but integrating code is out of my depth.

Now this is me completely spit balling. let me know if I appear to be even close to anything remotely usable, LOL

//Repairing Vehicles
    if ((dayz_myCursorTarget != cursorTarget) and _isVehicle and !_isMan and _hasToolbox and (damage cursorTarget < 1)) then {
 
        if (s_player_repair_crtl < 0) then {
 
            _vehicle = cursorTarget;
            dayz_myCursorTarget = _vehicle;
 
                _menu = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Repair Vehicle", "salvage\repair_vehicle.sqf",_vehicle, 0, true, false, "",""];
            
            if nearestObjects [player, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 60]; then {
                
                _cancel = true;
                _reason = format["Cannot salvage part within a plot pole radius"];
                
            }else{
            
                _menu1 = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Salvage Vehicle", "salvage\salvage_vehicle.sqf",_vehicle, 0, true, false, "",""];
                
            }
 
            s_player_repairActions set [count s_player_repairActions,_menu];
            s_player_repairActions set [count s_player_repairActions,_menu1];
 
            s_player_repair_crtl = 1;
 
        } else {
            {dayz_myCursorTarget removeAction _x} forEach s_player_repairActions;s_player_repairActions = [];
            s_player_repair_crtl = -1;
        };
    };

Oh thanks Ramix, you rock. I will give it a try. As you can see from my post above I was way off from trying, LOL

Thanks Again

[azzdayz]

Well I was at work when I pasted the original post and didn't realize the one I pasted was an edit by someone apparently. Needless to say do to that fact the very nicely provided write by Raymix did not work. I was able to take some of the work and get it mostly working with the way my actual code is written, but it is working backwards. If your around a  plot pole you can salvage and if you out of a plot pole range then you cant savage, LOL could you Raymix or someone help me out one more time and let me know what needs to be done to reverse this?

    //Repairing Vehicles
if ((dayz_myCursorTarget != _cursorTarget) && _isVehicle && !_isMan && _hasToolbox && (damage _cursorTarget < 1) && !_isDisallowRepair) then {

        if (s_player_repair_crtl < 0) then {
            dayz_myCursorTarget = _cursorTarget;
            _menu = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction [localize "STR_EPOCH_PLAYER_REPAIRV", "\z\addons\dayz_code\actions\repair_vehicle.sqf",_cursorTarget, 0, true, false, "",""];
            
        _plot = nearestObjects [player, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 60];
        
        if (count _plot > 0) then {
            _menu1 = dayz_myCursorTarget addAction ["Salvage Vehicle", "SCRIPTS\salvage_vehicle\salvage_vehicle.sqf",_cursorTarget, 0, true, false, "",""];
            s_player_repairActions set [count s_player_repairActions,_menu1];
            };
            s_player_repairActions set [count s_player_repairActions,_menu];
            s_player_repair_crtl = 1;
        } else {
            {dayz_myCursorTarget removeAction _x} count s_player_repairActions;s_player_repairActions = [];
            s_player_repair_crtl = -1;
        };
    };

Can anyone help me figure out why my edit is making it work backwards? I would really like to figure this out and every time I try something it breaks the whole code :(

[raymix]

The answer is still in my post, you gotta be more careful when editing without understanding:
 

if !(count _plot > 0) then { //exclamation mark reverses logic

 

[azzdayz]

Ah, I tried looking up what that did, but couldn't find anything on it. Thanks I will give it a shoot :)

Update!!!

Worked like a charm, thanks again.
