If statement should allow multiple conditions

I often wish I could have an IF command that says if x and y or if x or y. I’d want multiple conditions, e.g., the ability to say, if a and b and c and d...

I’d be happy to try to implement this myself, the only problem is I don’t know how to make it backward compatible so the existing if statements still function as they did.

Two types of ‘If’ feels a bit off to me. Resolving this with a more robust ‘If’ and a second more complex boolean algebra style command like AcademyOfF had originally, is a good solution. So for now, I’d recommend focus on what the minimum of a robust ‘if’ looks like.

We may be covering the majority of frequent cases by simply having a list of the conditions and a tick box for All of these/Any of these. Also a user that wants a very specific and ‘complex’ conditional, may be wanting to use LuaIf anyway.

Note that the improved VariableCondition shouldn’t become any harder to use or require more clicks than it does presently.

I’m excited by the idea of having the user enter pseudo logic and having the command editor check and determine the underlying data it would actually store, but I would keep that as a Phase II of this issue. Goal here should be allowing things like

• If hasRedKey == true AND wasRudeToMargret == false
• if passwordCorrect == true OR charisma >= 80

Thanks for sharing the snippets. They’ll be useful along side the conditions, variables, and looping improvements I was looking into.
