Assembly that checks for offset value condition

[ArchD]

I'm looking to create an assembly that grades to a surface at a slope, but if the toe falls beyond a distance, then switch to a steeper grade, then to the surface. 

Conditionals don't work too well for checking distances without having a physical target to specify. 

Anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Archie:

You did not give a whole lot of info.   Since you mentioned the TOE ,  I assume you are in a fill condition.  I think you should be able to use the OTHER Conditional one, i.e., the ConditionalCutOrFill.   If your existing ground slope is not too drastic you should be able to do a little "trial and error" method.  The above sub does not have to be at the edge of the pavement but can be on out further or at the shoulder point.  It is based on the depth directly below the attachment point.

Yeah, the cut and fill conditional checks the cut/fill, the horizontal conditional checks for an actual target. I would like a conditional that checks to see if the daylight line is farther than a specified distance, and if so, add a break in slope at that distance then continue to grade to the surface at a new grade.

Use a slope for your "distance" Sub then test it at that point.  Height is over X feet use the new break slope.  Height is under X feet than continue your normal slope to the EG.  You might have to play with the Height X factor.

I might be mistaken, but doesn't the DaylightMaxWidth subassembly do this?

[ArchD]

The max width only gives one slope, and if it daylights beyond a certain with, it steepens the slope. 

Instead of steeping the slope, I need it to break in slope at a certain distance away, then steeper slope to the surface.
