Radiation Rework Information
Contamination
Contamination now mostly happens by touching radioactive material, the contamination works similarly to contracting diseases by touch, using the clothes' permeability, but the clothes themselves also get contaminated.
Radiation no longer contaminates most things, but this doesn't mean areas that don't look green are safe.
Radiation types
Radiation now comes in 3 different types:
- Alpha - Easily blocked by most things, emitted mostly by uranium
- Beta - Easily blocked by airlocks and walls, emitted mostly by the nuke core and plasma windows charged with Gamma radiation
- Gamma - Emitted by the SM and Singularity, isn't blocked well by most things other than plasma windows and reinforced walls.
Power Production
The Supermatter and Singularity output Gamma radiation, which the collectors don't absorb much of. Instead, plasma containing windows are used to convert Gamma radiation to Beta radiation which the collectors Absorb almost entirely.
Windows multiply the radiation they convert, and different windows have different multipliers. Reinforced plasma glass is worst, normal plasma glass is better while plastitanium glass is best:
Material | Directional Window Rad Multiplier | Directional Window Gamma Absorption | Full Window Rad Multiplier | Full Window Gamma Absorption |
---|---|---|---|---|
Reinforced plasma glass |
1.5 | 60% | 2.5 | 84% |
Plasma glass |
2 | 60% | 3 | 84% |
Plastitanium glass |
2.5 | 60% | 4 | 84% |
