Description

Removes the Action Point cost of hacking containers/objectives/etc. from close proximity.

Have you ever gotten to the objective on the last turn before mission failure only for the container/workstation/whatever to explode in your face because it costs an Action Point to hack it, despite standing right beside it?
This mod is for you!

This mod removes the AP cost from hacking objects in close proximity (like objectives), which should make it less infuriating when you end up dashing up to an objective you need to hack (on the last turn before mission failure), and you don't have any AP left.

This is, I believe, the first engine-class replacement mod on the Workshop. Please let me know if you encounter any issues and I'll work on fixing them.

WARNING!

MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR SAVE GAMES!

ANY SAVES MADE WITH THE MOD WILL NOT WORK IF THE MOD IS THEN DISABLED!
This is a feature put in by Firaxis, and is the same with any mod.

For those wanting to have hacking not require AP, get the Hack Plus mod, there's a line called "+FreeAction=false" in the XComHackPlus.ini file, just change it to true, and you basically have this mod integrated in it, and Hack Plus has a WotC version

And if you dislike the bonus to hacking gained by every action done, you can simply change all values to 0, and you have vanilla hacking again ^^

I want to make something in a different direction of this mod. Like, make a standard shot cost 2 ap so you and the enemy can't run and shot in the same turn. In XCOM EU it was a sniper weapon properties eWP_MoveLimited. But it seems in XCOM 2 do I need to edit ability cost?
