Summary	0023412: Adjust hacking cost for the exogalactic wormhole as seen during wormhole invasions
Description	The 'destabilize wormhole' hack costs a whopping 120 Hacking Points. I can't think of any reasonable scenario where I'm willing to spend 4 planets worth of hacking points to remove something that will eventually disappear on its own. I have played on choke-point maps with high intensity Astrotrains leaving me with more HaP than usual and even then I never even came close to considering it. They shouldn't be easy to get rid off, but 120 HaP feels like an exorbitant cost. There is also a typo in the hack description.

BadgerBadger Jul 19, 2020 11:35 pm manager ~0057696	Not a bug? This hack is intended as an Emergency Only; I don't think it should be hackable at all, but it was added by special request.

GreatYng Jul 22, 2020 5:14 pm reporter ~0057789	As it stands no one will ever use this hack casually, so mission accomplished. Thank you for clarifying.
