Radiation suits are very effective at preventing radiation contamination. In fact, most of the danger of highly radioactive areas is inhalation of radioactive particles and heavy metal poisoning. In light of the fact that radioactive decay is exponential and the bombs fell quite some time ago (In Fallout lore) I figured the default radiation suits just weren't good enough. I also removed some DT from them, since radiation suits are completely dependent on not having holes or cuts in them.
I only modified two items:
The Radiation Suit
Gives you 75% radiation resistance. In most cases you'll be getting 1 to 2 rads/sec with this radiation suit equipped. DT changed from 4 to 1.
The Adv. Radiation Suit
Gives you the maximum of 100% (See notes below) radiation resistance when equipped. DT
changed from 6 to 2.
Basically, I wanted to make the radiation suit act as if it were a sub-par suit (cheaply made, crappy filtering, etc.). And I wanted the advanced radiation suit to act as a very good, well-made suit.
Enjoy!
***NOTES***
1) If, for some reason, you load a save game after installing this mod and you were wearing one of the radiation suits, you will need to reequip it for the effects to start working.
2) I've recently learned (Thanks, Pachs!) that the max resistance limits could be increased. However, increasing them only works as an all or nothing kind of thing. So, to increase the max radiation resistance, I had to also increase all other resistances. This could have some impact on gameplay if you stack tons of damage resistance, etc. However, I feel that in most cases this change should be fairly invisible to most players. If you see a problem with the max resistance limit, please let me know.
