# Player Damage Effect
Use this effect to damage a player during dangerous weather events.
Expects a table as the parameter containing the following values:
- ``value <number>``: The amount of damage to be applied per successful roll per cycle
- ``chance <number>``: Defines a 1/x chance for the player to get damaged. Higher values result in less frequent damage.
