Get verbs and their "hidden" nature >__>

Code:
obj/verb    
    get()
        set src in oview(0)
        if(Getable==1)
            set hidden = 0
            set category="Social"
            src.loc = usr
        if(Getable==0)
            set hidden = 1
        else
            return


Problem description:

I'm trying to make it so the verb for get() is hidden if the object is not obtainable, but if it is i want the verb to be displayed. Here the get verb isnt being shown if it is obtainable... meaning its just staying hidden to pick anything up. (i'm doing this because i made my NPC's all objects so the summons list wont be a huge list of every NPC on the map, quite convienent)


any suggestions?

            get()
                set src in oview(1)
                usr.contents += src
    thing2
        icon = ''
        icon_state = ""
        verb
            get()
                set src in oview(1)
                usr.contents += src
    thing3
        icon = ''
        icon_state = ""

In response to tidus123
I knew i could do it like that, but... the other way protrains to all obj's and it would be a lot less coding if i did it to all, instad of just the ones i want to be able to get.... **cant explain well**

I thank you for you suggestion!



Anyone else know what to do to the origanel code?
