I want to create a syndrome that causes a periodic cumulative increase in physical attributes.

Is this possible?

I'm new to creating syndromes, but I presume this code will cause a 1% attribute increase on the first of the month:

      

Code: [Select]

[CE_PHYS_ATT_CHANGE:STRENGTH:101:0:TOUGHNESS:101:0:ENDUCANCE:101:0:RECUPERATION:101:0:DISEASE_RESISTANCE:101:0:START:0]
[CE:PERIODIC:MOON_PHASE:1:1]
But will this change be permanent (and cumulative), or will it only apply on one day a month?

This will not be cumulative.

It is possible to do this, at least in fortress mode.  Basically, you use the START and END values for each part of the syndrome to determine when the effects will happen, and make a new line for each cumulative increase.

33600 ticks is one month, so if you wanted to increase 1% each month, you'd do something like this:

Code: [Select]

[CE_PHYS_ATT_CHANGE:STRENGTH:101:0:TOUGHNESS:101:0:ENDUCANCE:101:0:RECUPERATION:101:0:DISEASE_RESISTANCE:101:0:START:33600]
[CE_PHYS_ATT_CHANGE:STRENGTH:101:0:TOUGHNESS:101:0:ENDUCANCE:101:0:RECUPERATION:101:0:DISEASE_RESISTANCE:101:0:START:67200]
[CE_PHYS_ATT_CHANGE:STRENGTH:101:0:TOUGHNESS:101:0:ENDUCANCE:101:0:RECUPERATION:101:0:DISEASE_RESISTANCE:101:0:START:100800]
[CE_PHYS_ATT_CHANGE:STRENGTH:101:0:TOUGHNESS:101:0:ENDUCANCE:101:0:RECUPERATION:101:0:DISEASE_RESISTANCE:101:0:START:134400]

And so on.

Each of these lines will be evaluated separately, so the increase for each will be cumulative.  Since there is no END value, the increase will never end.  But you need to add a new line for every change.

Note that this will only work in fort mode.  In adventure mode, syndromes jump to their 'final' state as soon as you enter fast-travel mode, so you'd get all the power boosts at once the moment you fast-traveled.

First, ENDURANCE.

Second, if you don't have end values there, it won't be cumulative, I'm pretty sure. Last I checked, they don't stack.
