About this mod

Have you ever wanted the radiation to be a little more...Serious? Dangerous? Yeah, because in real life, radiation are not somekind of magic potion who give you superpowers. No ! In real life, radiation gives you cancer and can even kill you in a matter of hours, even minutes if you are exposed to a massive amount. Esp and Esl files available.

Permissions and credits
The radiation are a serious thing, and should be a concern for everyone living in a world who suffered a nuclear apocalypse on a global scale.

This mod aims to give a more dangerous and serious approach to the radiation: overhaul, you will suffer much more radiation from almost every source.

For example, in the base game, the Glowing Sea is described as the most dangerous place in the Commonwealth, a radioactive hell no one sane would enter; and when you finally got there.
The deception: you only take 7-8 radiation per second while wearing only a trunks.

The danger and the radioactive hell? My ass !

Well, with my mod, this is not the case anymore ! Now, going to the Glowing Sea without protection will kill you in mere seconds ! What did you expect? A cookie?

Don't hesitate to voice your opinions and your suggestions, i have several plans for this mod, but i'd also like to know what you think about it; it could be useful for my own usage too.

The file is available both in ESP and in ESL.

Numbers and details.

Irradiated water now inflicts radiation damage over time, I made this change because I tought it would make more sense that drinking dirty water would poison you progressively as the liquid is spreading in your organism.
When a value is given without a duration value, then it means the radiation damage are instantaneous. When a value is given per second, but the total duration is not displayed (XX per second), that means the radiation damage will be active until you leave their area of effect.
