Forum:Rad Resist broken?

I've noticed that, if you're in a zone that generates 1 rad/sec, no matter what you do, it appears impossible to block that single rad/sec. Even if you have Rad Resist of 51% or higher, which should make the game round the exposure down to 0 rads/sec, 1 rad/sec still gets through.

This seems completely stupid to me. If you're in power armor or the Radiation Suit, and have downed some Rad-X, you should be impervious to low level radiation, right? I feel like it's either a bug or a cheap way to make you buy RadAway.

Is there a rational (real world) reason for this? Do radiation suits in the real world not actually block all radiation from getting through if the concentration is low enough?

If there's not a good reason for this, is there a mod that fixes it? I've looked on the Nexus but haven't been able to find one. Servius 14:54, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

It displays 1/sec but you only take the appropriate amount of radiation. You never block 100% so that 1 Rad/sec stays unless you are out of the radiation entirely. -- 18:06, November 27, 2010 (UTC)
