Teleman needs a thirty second delay

Now, I won't deny that such encounters are difficult to counter, so if we really wanted to change something, what could one do to make them happen less?
Simple, make telepads use up telecrystals for teleportation. This would up the requirements for fully self-constructed telepads some more (on top of the material costs telepads already have).
"But this makes even legitimate telescience reliant on mining"
Give science a starting reservoir of, say, 15 telecrystals.

Why not just up the power requirement for teleportations? That way, the station bound teleporter are less affected than the one you could do with a setup somewhere off-station.

Telepads don't require telescrystals to build, which honestly is kinda odd...

For portals, the power requirements are just right, i feel for receive/send they could be higher.
