If you want to add

1. A planet modifier named "irradiated_planet" for 720 days
2. A planetary deposit named "d_irradiated_ruins"

This should do the trick:

effect = from = { add_modifier = { name = irradiated_planet days = 720 } add_deposit = d_irradiated_ruins } }

add_modifier = { name = irradiated_planet days = 720 }

Slight error here, I think. The tag needs to be modifier, not name. So:

add_modifier = { modifier = irradiated_planet days = 720 }

Typical. I did get a bit unsure when writing, but I was in a hurry and didn't bother to check. Thanks for the correction!

Thanks for all the responses everyone, however it seems non of them work. The add deposit is not longer added and the bugged modifier is now gone

I went ahead and tried something else, we're getting closer boys. hell yea the timer is working now
only thing left is to get the correct modifier to work

Both versions work and essentially do the same thing. The issue with the first one is that you forgot the curly brackets in the "effects =" line.

The game will tell you about such syntax errors (and other stuff) in the error.log found here:
Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\logs

Very useful to find such small mistakes that mess things up.
