Irradiated is one of the Biome varieties.
Summary
Worlds with an Irradiated biome have a rocky surface with spirals, vents of steaming radioactive gasses and highly mutated, warped plants. Viewed from space, these worlds have lots of spiralling circles. The resources Uranium, Gamma Root and Radon can be found here.
Despite the radioactive nature of these planets, fauna are surprisingly common on these planets.
Name generation
The biome type is indicated in the information panel when the player exits their starship. This is procedurally generated by adding one of the following prefixes to the Planet or Moon text.
The sequence is taken from the game file.
- Irradiated
- Radioactive
- Contaminated
- Nuclear
- Isotopic
- Decaying Nuclear
- Gamma-Intensive
- High Radio Source
- Supercritical
- High Energy
Conditions
- Hazard protection is always on due to high amounts of radiation. Radiation Deflector upgrades are recommended, especially on extreme worlds.
- Radioactive storms can occur, draining hazard protection approximately three times higher more quickly than normal.
- Extremely irradiated worlds drains hazard protection at the same rate during a storm in a normal irradiated world.
- Storms in extremely irradiated worlds drain hazard protection approximately three times more quickly.
