Help with addaction using cursor targets

[GreatKeeper 0]

  {
        if (vehicle player == player) && (typeOf cursorTarget) == vehicle;
         then {
        _x addAction ["<t color=""#0000FF"">Tow</t>", {hint "test"};, "", 6, false, false, "", "_this distance cursorTarget < 3"];
    };
  } forEach vehicles;

^^^^

Trying to get the above to do my hint "test" when the player is in any vehicle and looking at another vehicle that happens to be less that 3m away. I am execVM'ing the script.

Unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work so does anyone mind showing me a working way or pointing out any errors, much appreciated!

Of course I will replace the hint "test" with an attachTo script but that's not what I need help with :)

For one thing, you have an erroneous semicolon after your addAction codeblock

{hint "test"}

Try the following to see if it works for you

{
	_x addAction ["<t color=""0000FF"">Tow</t>", {hint "test"}, "", 6, false, false, "", "_this distance _target < 10 && vehicle _this != _this && _target isKindOf ""LandVehicle"""];
} forEach vehicles

if is missing () and has not needed ;

@killzone_kid Hey, I have removed the ; but where should I put the brackets you are suggestion?

 

@Nikander Sorry that didn't work :(

[killzone_kid 1326]

after if and before then, only it will still not work as typeof cursortarget will never == vehicle and you cannot compare string with object and vehicle needs an argument. I suggest you  check other peoples code or use some examples from wiki
