The limited for crew modules is listed at 50mSv, but a 6-month trip to Mars would have you receive about 250mSv. A 6-month stay on the International Space Station would be about 80mSv. From my Experience I have never received an error message from the crew modules for the walls being too thin against radiation exposure. The only error message I received for the crew modules is when the wall are too thin for the atmosphere. It looks to me that our walls would be too thin to protect against radiation, but I may be wrong. What do you guy think? Also does any one know which material property shields you against Sieverts? link for Sievert Dose examples

The total effective per year dose is 1 mSv. Does anyone else then me see a problem here?

I think one of the issues here is that radiation environment is far from homogeneous across solar system. Close to the sun it's probably going to be bad, Jupiter at Ganymede and below is a literal hellscape, most of the outer system is going to be benign, etc. It would be nice to have values listed for individual bodies at least and shielding checked against that.
Also some, but not enough shielding is worse than no shielding against charged particles, because instead of having a few insanely high energy particles just zip through you, you get shotgunned by showers of much lower energy particles they knocked out of shielding. It's like spall damage with ineffective bulk armour in a way.
