With the goal of someday importing elements of the Power Profiles and Gadget Guides, I've been spending some time getting the hang of the editor. Patching in some of my group's simpler house rules hasn't been an issue. But I'm working on chopping out the Close Combat and Ranged Combat skills (done) and replacing them with an "Attack Specialization" advantage that let's the player pick from both ranged and melee attacks and powers, granting a +2 to 1pp. It's all to make slotting in the 3 skill points/1pp house rule a little smoother.
First attempt was based on copying the script from Improved Crit, but that seemed bulky and unnecessary. Second attempt failed based on my then misunderstanding. Current attempt borrows from Throwing Mastery to get the job done. I've got the code below, but here's my question: Is this the best way to accomplish this advantage? Or is there a trick or solution I'm missing?
Thanks in advance

Code:
var bonus as number
bonus = 2 * field[adRanks].value
~ If we're not active, get out
doneif (activated = 0)
~ Get the pick we selected - if we chose 'other', just get out now
perform field[usrChosen1].chosen.setfocus
doneif (state.isfocus = 0)
if (focus.tagis[Helper.OtherAtt] <> 0) then
perform assign[User.NeedDomain]
done
endif
~ Iterate through our throwing weapons, adding our ranks as a bonus to each
focus.field[atkAttack].value += bonus
~ Do the same with our throw-ranged powers
~ focus.field[atkAttack].value += bonus
~ nexteach
Thanks in advance
