I'm trying to figure out how to automate an ability and running into a bit of an issue. Here is the text of the result section of the ability:

Critical Success The target is unaffected.
Success The target is sickened 1.
Failure The target is sickened 1 and is also enfeebled 2 for 1 round.
Critical Failure The target is sickened 1 and is also enfeebled 2 for 1 minute.

So the problem here is that sickened 1 needs to be applied without a duration, but enfeebled 2 needs to be applied with a duration.

Here's what I have so far:

"sickened 1"|Effect: Poison Gasp; Sickened:1[SUCCESS]
"enfeebled 2 for 1 round"|Effect: Poison Gasp; Enfeebled:2[D:1][FAILURE]
"enfeebled 2 for 1 minute"|Effect: Poison Gasp; Enfeebled:2[D:10][CRITFAILURE]

What I'm not sure about is how to get the sickened 1 to also apply on a failure or critfailure, without rolling it into the enfeebled effect, which would then give it a duration I don't want it to have. I tried putting multiple "sickened 1" entries in the automation in the hopes that it would go down the list, but that doesn't seem to work.

I think your first line would be ... Sickened: 1[SUCCESS][FAILURE][CRITFAILURE] - I think.

Oh! It didn't occur to me I could apply multiple success levels to a single line. Thanks, I'll give that a try.
