See https://zdoom.org/wiki/Actor_properties ... p.Duration

You will have to create a new powerup actor, which could inherit
from the Radsuit for simplicity of coding.

Those articles are too FRAGMENTED and too complicated for me. They do not explain explicitly how to do this.

Can anyone explain it in simple words?

You need to create a new actor and inherit from the radiation suit, and modify its powerup duration.

Actor SuperRadSuit : RadSuit 999

{
//$Category Powerups
//$Title Super Radiation Suit
Powerup.Duration -120
}

Powerup.Duration length can be a positive value, in which it will be in tics (1/35 second), or a negative value, in which it will be in seconds. The other two properties categorize and name it so you can find it in Doom Builder, and the number at the top is its DoomEdNum which is used to search for it in Edit Thing. Those three things can be anything you want, as long as it isn't already in use.

Also you can give it +INVENTORY.ADDITIVETIME so that when you pick sveral at once, their time is added instead of merely resetting the counter.
