Radiation mechanics

[CptVodka]

I'm very lost here. I've read the manual but still need some help figuring things out.


If i've gotten it correct.. Only the populace/workers/soldiers in the specific hex are troubled from it's respective RAD. Right?
If that's right, then to calculate how high level of a treatment center i need.. I need to look at every hex with a building in it, their RAD and the amount of people working there. Then the city itself and then an estimate of how many troops i'll be having around.
Is there any simpler way? Like.. Something saying that i need more rad treatment, or that my treatment centers are working at x% capacity?

** Means that if you have more Populace/Soldiers using this Asset the effect will
be diluted. Level 1 assets help 10K Populace, level 2 help 30K, level 3 help 60K,
level 4 help 100K, level 5 help 150K, etc… Order of help given by this Asset Type
is: Soldiers first, Workers/Recruits/Colonists after, Population last.

This one is really confusing too.
How much is the diminishing effect? For example. A level 1 asset with 20k population. How much RAD are they protected against? Does it count as a double of pop=half of effect? Does this work in the reverse too? I.e half pop=double effect?

What about levels above level 5? How much pop does those levels protect against?
These values: 10k - 30k - 60k - 100k - 150k indicates that the formula is "0.5x^2 + 0.5x"
That would mean that level 6 is 210k and level 7 is 280k. Is that correct?

As for that formula, unless it is written for every level (as the other building was), the formula should be displayed as well. Not everyone is good at math, and for those bad at it.. They might not even know how to approach the problem with a calculator.

Final question: Citzen&workers are protected by assets for up to 400 rad. Does that also apply to non-working citzen and soldiers posted within a city?

sudo necro -h
Also, what the heck is Irradiance as part of the solar panel power generation calculations?

yeah but if you dont use tactical nukes, as i DO, it shouldnt be an issue
