Nexus description:
Radiation Overhaul
If you feel like Radiation is not even present in the game and is just a minor nuisance rather than the environmental hazard it is supposed to be, then this mod is for you!
No more poking around radiation sources without protection
No more walking into the Glowing Sea naked or without proper medicine, you die in seconds
RADIATION IS A REAL HAZARD:
- All environmental radiation sources are multiple times more intense, damaging you way faster
- This only affects radiation sources but not water bodies as this not only would be unrealistic but also way too impractical for the gameplay
- Drinking and Food intake is not affected either
- Weapon radiation damage is not affected by this mod
BALANCED RAD RESISTANCE PERKS:
- Rad Resistant perk has gives more Rad Resistance accordingly
- Astoundingly Awesome Tales magazine gives more Rad Resistance accordingly
DECONTAMINATION ARCH DISABLED
- Decontamination Arch is unavailable for the player to build. This simple change makes radiation sickness something urgent to be dealt with quickly.
EFFECTIVE COUNTER MEASURES:
- Power Armor blocks way more environmental Radiation when all pieces are worn (This does NOT conflict with my Power Armor Overhaul mod)
- T-51 blocks a little less radiation than T-45, T-60 and X-01, as the lore has established
- Hazmat Suit and Power Armor have visible perks to show their effects
- Power Armor blocks more water radiation than the Hazmat suit metal can be waterproof while cloth less so
- Raider Power Armor is excluded from the above & offers no extra RAD resistance
FAR HARBOR QUEST IS NOT AFFECTED:
- In Far Harbor you are required to enter and drink from Atom’s Spring, hence that environment, being water environment, is left vanilla as said above
