Drugs and time in game

[Puncher]

For drugs like voodoo and trauma pack u get the positive effect for the first 20 minutes after comsumation.Is this real time or in game time?Also how do i know what time is during missions and what effect has ITB or STB for drug duration?
Im so confused with this that i need ask,maybe someone can give me an answer.Its annoying that u dont know when drug beneficial effect will go off and offen i get them in the middle of major combats during turns.

Yes i figured this out already.Also with editor you can check drugs info as well as other stuff like weapons ammo etc wich is a very helpfull thing.

time passes three times - 3x - faster than in real life. for example, you'll probably get into situations where you'll want to add some psycho in the mix with voodoo (1 psycho, 2 voodoos for example) because the voodoo will have its drawback in less than 7 minutes (6.66 minutes). psycho will last longer than voodoo: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Tactics_consumables

you have to divide the duration by 3 for real time planning.

i also found out that more than 2 drugs can be taken only if you have EN=6. i got knocked out from 2 drugs (buffout + after burner gum) with both EN=2 and EN=4. a bit disappointing...

also, its very useful to know this thing when planning missions for example starting in quincy some time at night so that some later part of the mission is done with high visibility, day light, saving the ghouls at least. sneak works best at night so that you don't need to spend too many skill points into it but rather choose night time.
