[R#194]MC5 Hacknet Instant Death

If I create a new PE Hacker with default appearance settings and skills in the CityAdmin faction, then skip the tutorial, and go directly to the MC5 Main to MC5 Hack, on entering hacknet I am transported to hacknet just fine, alive.

However, if I create a character with the same settings, but with the jacket model selected in the appearance settings, I die instantly on entering the MC5 Main to MC5 Hack.

I have repeated this a few time with and without the jacket with the same results, but have not tried any other changes as it takes half an hour between character creations.

ADDENDUM!

Ok so I just tried it again, probably the sixth time, with jacket, and I didn't die this time.

[EDIT] Deleted that char, made same again, died instantly again. Is it random?

This is weird, I'll check this later! Thanks for reporting :)

Lol, crap I meant to report this. My brother had the exact same issue several days ago. Dead, and had to respawn in his apartment.

Intersting, I tried to access the Hacknet in MC5 with a new hacker a few days ago and didn't even get to the hack screen (has this been disabled due to a bug?)

On a related note when I enter Hacknet from a GenRep with my Crahn character I instantly die (are the NPCs treating me as hostile or something?)

You don't need to hack the MC5 hacknet zone, that's intentional.

I noticed that I died on hacknet entry when I only hat 20 hck. When I skilled 25 hck, I can enter.
I think in hacknet hlt is dependent on hck, and maybe with 20 the value is below 0?

Update: At Int 10 25 hck is not enough, but using a drug with +15 helped.
