a few questions from a newbie

[Guest]

in the character screen if you click on health rate it says you can regenerate more HP by resting. can you rest and if so how? i dodnt see anything in the manual about it
also, my team leader has been winded for ever. i thought this was suppose to go away on its own. whats up? do i have to use a doc's bag?
one other thing. this game is awesome but my system is running it really choppy. everything seems to be compatible:graphics card, directx 8.1 etc. anything i else i can try to clean it up?
thanks all!!

From a fellow newbie-

The healing thing drives me nuts. I find that my characters heal when they travel. As you move, you will notice the pipboy measures time off. During those days, between movement, your character is healing. (Thus heal and walk at the same time). Not sure if you just leave the board on whether you will heal as per real time or not. Also note the distinction between healing in green and in red. It seems you can heal a lot in green (light wounds) but the red wounds take longer or require medical attention. Anyone else know?

Surprised about the winded thing. I know some of the wounds do recover. I think my winded character got over it eventually, and I had a place receive concussion damage and also got over that. I would get a doctor's bag soon.

As for the choppy game play. My game runs that way too sometimes. They say the booster helps, but I found it screwed up my game even more. I had to reinstall a few times before I got it in a way that I liked. Now the problem is that the game crashes fairly frequently, which is annoying as I am an infrequent saver.
