Vault city and books? (SPOILER)

Post by SupaCat »

I'm at vault city and I gained 2 books of some guy. Anyway, when I read them, I lose 4 point of perception, strength and agility. I have radiation, but it only happens when I read the books. I have the patch.
Help please

Sounds like a bug. Who gives you the books, and what's the names of the books? Also, which version you are playing?

What happens if you rest?
IIRC then when you read books time passes in the game world, and it is the passing of time which causes your stat loss.
Are you on any kind of drugs which might run out and give penalties? Or perhaps it is the radiation taking its toll - although I do not recall radiation giving such harsh penalties.

After I lost my points and travelled a little bit, they suddenly returned. I think it was the radiation. I'm on no drugs. I also believe i'm playing the 1.00 version.
