For BLUFOR_Player1_1:

 

if (isServer) then {
     [] spawn {
       while {true} do {
         waitUntil {sleep 1; allUnits findIf { side _x in [INDEPENDENT,EAST] &&  {BLUFOR_Player1_1 distance2D _x < 40} } >-1};
         ZeusBLUFOR1_1_Curator removeCuratorEditingArea 1;
         waitUntil {sleep 1; allUnits findIf { side _x in [INDEPENDENT,EAST] &&  {BLUFOR_Player1_1 distance2D _x < 40} } == -1};
         ZeusBLUFOR1_1_Curator addCuratorEditingArea [1, position BLUFOR_Player1_1, 40];
      };
    };
};

Just a quick question about why this is a better way of writing what I've already put.

 

I can see that the check for Independent/East is a much cleaner way of doing what my script already does, I'm just wondering why you suggest using:

isServer  There is no need to run that on client as far as your command are server only! Already explained multiple times on your other topics.

waitUntil   avoid repeating code (for curator areas). There is no reason for adding (or removing) an area every 0.05 sec.

while {true}  // In MP, instead of alive blabla,  just in case your unit blabla can be killed/respawned.

findIf (see example 2)
