PC Ye Olde Radiation Suit Question...

I'm watching a 11-hour long supercut of 7 Days to Die videos. It's a lot of fun because of the people playing it. This is from an older version of the game - Alpha 16. Where I am at at the moment they're trying to use the Radiation Suit to recover stuff from the radiation zone but the results seem to be variable. In some cases the suit works, in others it doesn't, or else it seems to work for a short while then stops working very suddenly and they have to run back to safety.

Does anyone know how this suit worked...? Did it only delay the onset of radiation or did it stop it completely. Or did it depend how deep you went into the radiation zone. Or was it only cosmetic and had no actual benefits beside roasting the wearer to death.

I'm just curious. My only experience of Alpha 16 was running all the way across the map over and over again to reach my brother -- and dying right in front of him each time.

Heh, sounds like Neebs Gaming ... they're entertaining at least 😀

But yeah, I'm not surprised the radiation suit did nothing and they kept trying to use it.

 
It was utilized in some overhaul mods, so depending on what they're playing it might do "something"; but I won't claim to know what was the state of A16 or its mods by heart :)

 
Please do not ask me to explain it, because I only have the vaguest clue

but here is what I found.

        <property name="ConcussiveProtection" value="0.08,0.2"/>
        <property name="PunctureProtection" value="0.1,0.25"/>
        <property name="FireProtection" value="0.04,0.1"/>
        <property name="RadiationProtection" value="0.32,0.8"/>
        <property name="ElectricalProtection" value="0.06,0.1"/>
        <property name="DegradationMax" value="160,400"/>

This was the hazmatboots, everything else extended from it.

All 5 pieces added up to degredationmax, minus the damage

gotten along the way. So possibly if they just found the suits

and didn't fully repair them just before going into the rad zone

it could have had different effects. I also have watched all of the

Neebs 7dtd episodes. I'd do a playall  and fall asleep in my chair.
