## About The Pull Request Reduces the price of the Doomsday equipment by 20 PT for each APC hacked in a Head of Staff office, as well as the Vault. ## Why It's Good For The Game See #71404 for the prior PR and my full reasoning. Long-story short, activating the Doomsday before having a plan in place is suicide, and it takes 13 APCs to unlock. Since there are few well hidden APCs in general, you'll usually be gathering APCs after going loud (such as with a borg machine). 13 APCs is 13 minutes, and by the time you've gathered your malfbux, you're either already dead or have already taken full control. I had intended to give Doomsday a flat 70 PT price, but concerns were raised that an AI could conceivably hack only APCs on their sat (and perhaps one on the Lavaland outpost) and Doomsday without ever really touching the station*. So a compromise was proposed, we instead give the AI discounts by hacking Head of Staff areas, and the Vault, which are usually situated in well-traveled areas, and also have some fluff reasoning. *I still think it'd be suicide to do this, but it's not a hill I want to die on. ## Changelog 🆑 balance: Malf AIs that hack Head of Staff and Vault APCs will now find a discount issued on Doomsday. /🆑 --------- Co-authored-by: Jacquerel <hnevard@gmail.com>
