FGU- 5th edition conditional effects IF
Hi everyone!
I'm working on a curse effect for PC's. Essentially if they have any wounds, at the beginning of their turn they will take 1d4 of necrotic damage. So far I have the effect coded as below:
IFT: Wounded; DMGO: 1d4 necrotic
Whenever this PC's turn comes up in the combat tracker, I get a stack overflow error. I have the target set to self in the effects card, but this does not work with a regular IF statement either.
Any advice? Or a better way to do this.
Thanks in advance!

I do not get any stack overflow error using that effect within my test campaign. Are you running any extensions?
It should be "IF: Wounded; DMGO: 1d4 necrotic". The IFT conditional is for testing whether a target of the creature has an effect or type. In the case of ongoing effect checks, there is no target, only the source character.

Thanks for the tip on IFT vs IF . I tried the code both ways and I kept getting the error. It must have been due to another issue, though. After closing and relaunching FG and re-building the test encounter, it worked as expected. Thanks for the help!
