I just tested it out on Big Red, walked over the water a few times, nearly on all tiles, i was fine and nothing happened to me, even by the round end.

It could be me but I don't think it's the water that's radioactive -- last I saw there was a grid of uranium walls near the pools, which would account for radiation, along with not being irradiated if you happen to be lucky enough to walk through while they're not "pinging"

Expect they would ping faster than you would finish the walk from one side to another, and i was still preety much fine, hell i even went again to make sure, still nope.

Couldn't say for sure, but I wouldn't count out the map being changed to cut down on the "omg y m i getting tox damage" ahelps.

Alien scratches aren't infected, this is part of baycode. Any injury that's left untreated for awhile can/will become infected, which will give you a fever + toxin damage after awhile. You can treat it by using ointment on the infected area, or more commonly by taking antibodies (spaceacillin). Some folks don't notice this because injuries in CM tend to cause bleeding, which will kill you much faster untreated than infection will.

spaceacillin does not cure limb infections
limb infections have to be treated the way you'd regularly treat that limb, ie if the limb was burned then ointment removes the infection, if it was bruted then gauze does

Idk if related but sometimes if I survive long enough I start getting some random toxin damage, even though I'm apparently fine on the medbay scanners

Most likely tox damage from low blood level, that or infected wounds. Closing.
