Hello, i am running a 5E campaign and would like to create an undead templatesfor one player , however i dont know if its possible to have vulnerabilities and immunties hard coded in the race tab so that the combat tracker see them automatically .
Has anyone tried it and know how to proceed ?
Thanks in avance for answers.

Resistances and immunities are not 'hard coded' for PC races. You would create appropriate effects in the actions tab for that. VULN: radiant; IMMUNE: necrotic - for example.

You could try creating traits like You are vulnerable to radiant damage and You are immune to necrotic damage and once the character is created you could drag those traits into the action tab and it should create the effects. But it is just as easy to create them yourself (or have the player do it).

Ok so effects they have will to apply on themselves each time at log in then? I'll do that thanks.

No, once you have created the effect (set Targeting to 'Self' and Expire to 'Never') added the PC to the Combat Tracker and applied the effect you will never need to apply it again - unless for some reason you remove the PC from the Combat Tracker.
