Need help with automation
Greetings and Happy New Year.
A particular critter has unbalancing blow.
> Unbalancing Blow Any creature the monster critically hits is flat-footed against its attacks until the end of the monster's next turn.
So i would add the above text and is there a way to automate this so if the monster does get a critical the target is automatically flat footed?
Also would I add this feature to the 'automatic and reactive abilities or under Offensive or proactive abilities section?
Thanks again!

No real way to have effects automatically handled. The best you can do is have a selectable button that applies the effect as appropriate.
In effect, there's really no difference where you put it. I'd put it down in offensive/proactive myself then give it the automation: "flat-footed against its attacks until the end of the monster's next turn"|Effect: Unbalancing Blow; Flat-footed[D:2][END]
To make sure it's applied correctly, you'd then have that effect applied to the target by having the target selected, then dragging it on the creature with Unbalancing Blow. This should result in that target creature only being flat-footed against the appropriate foe.

Shade your help is invaluable as always..
I was looking at the hand of the apprentice which you did and it shows an effect triggered off a critical (persistent bleed of 1d6) but it is text only I think as when I rolled a crit for that spell it applied the effect but it did not roll or apply the bleed affect.
In the above code > what does [D:2] refer to?
