Radiation zone fix please
Recently, I had an unfortunate experience of crashing my helicopter into what I thought was just a giant mountain, but turned out to be a radiated zone, resulting in my death and the loss of my backpack. I entered dev mode to investigate and found that there were no distinct markings or textures to indicate the hazardous area.

I strongly suggest that the game should reinstate the unique texture and point of interest (POI) associated with radiated zones, which was present in the earlier versions of the game.

or... Here's something you can do... just bear with me....

don't fly over the edge of the map. I know, it's hard, but it might just work.

So... just to reiterate. Edge of map = death. Don't go near edge of map.

Just play for me. You seem to know what your doing.

Only navezgane has any kind of unique markings and textures to denote it's radiated zones.. For the most part, it's told by the purposefully PITA terrain that appears just before the edge to deter the player from going into it, or by signs on the road saying not to go that way.

Maps old, but, the radiation area is marked in red and should be still mostly accurate to the current game- For the most part, it's only at the edge of the map.

In current RWG worlds, the radiation is ONLY at the very edges of the map to prevent the player from reaching the edge, and is denoted by the drop off of land into open waters.

Again, an old pic, but, it illustrates the point. (sadly this one doesn't show the radiation border though); The playable area is ringed by open waters, and the radiation border is out in the water where the player should reasonably not be going since there's literally nothing out there- You can't see anything on the other side or anything.
