In javascript you can use the function "OnMouseEnter" and "OnMouseExit" to see if the mouse is over the object. And you can use "Vector3.Distance" to measure how far away you are. I think it would look something like this:

//these variables check if we're the correct distance and if we're looking at the object, the player variable is for checking distance

var player : Transform;

var looking : boolean;

var distance : boolean;

//these two functions check if the mouse if on the object

function OnMouseEnter () {

looking = true;

}

function OnMouseExit () {

looking = false;

}

//this will check if we are the correct distance from the object

function Update () {

if(looking == true && Vector3.Distance(transform.position, player.position)

{

("repair the object")

}

}

This should go on the object you want to repair, not the player. Hope I helped!
