[Athena148]

About The Pull Request

Approved by Silicons, explained via title above.

Adjusts costs of mining points to thaler ratio by 20x. Might decrease it.

Why It's Good For The Game

Balance and maintaining a believable economy. No more ludicrous amounts of thaler!

hate to get in the way here but I would like to point out that thalers also exist as an option in the exploration vendors and engineering vendors.

Engineering can surprisingly generate some pretty effective thaler. Exploration, not so much. Either way, if the thaler in mining is going, the thaler in engineering and exploration should also go.

There'll be other ways to get thaler through cargo in the future. Don't worry.

not to bully Sili but the bounty update's been in draft for how many months now?

Exploration thaler conversion is so inefficient it's basically null, I don't think the economy would be destabilized by it. Engineering thaler conversion requires a bit more work but there's a pretty hard cap to how much you make in a 5 hour round. I don't think anyone will stop you from making a separate PR that increases how much thalers cost in the engineering point vendor.
