How do you handle huge if-conditions?

Question

It\'s something that\'s bugged me in every language I\'ve used, I have an if statement but the conditional part has so many checks that I have to split it over multiple lines, u

I like to break them down by level, so I'd format you example like this:

if (var1 = true
 && var2 = true
 && var2 = true
 && var3 = true
 && var4 = true
 && var5 = true
 && var6 = true){

It's handy when you have more nesting, like this (obviously the real conditions would be more interesting than "= true" for everything):

if ((var1 = true && var2 = true)
 && ((var2 = true && var3 = true)
  && (var4 = true && var5 = true))
 && (var6 = true)){
