Criteria for Multi Action Button

In my current design, I use Global Properties as flags which determine whether certain action, triggered by Multi Action Button, is allowed at a given state of game or not. For example, there is Middle War Deck of cards which can be added to the draw pile if Early War cards had been added previously. Action which sends EW cards to the draw pile sets GP EarlyWar = 1. Multi Action Button – or rather its GKC – check against its GP whether it’s = 1; if not, none of GKC triggers.

It would be very nice, if one could define a global condition in context of MAB…

The way to do this in VASSAL 4 will be directly in a script.
