RFID reader needs a hideout craft, players should not be forced to play labs to finish tasks.

Title says it. I'm pretty much locked out of Kappa right now because of how difficult it is to get into a labs that both has the item spawn AND no cheaters and it seems unreasonable to need to go there or to spam marked rooms for an obscenely low chance of finding one. 70 Labs raids later and the only time I've seen it spawn I got speed hacked as I was picking it up, feels unnecessarily frustrating. Additionally, if I'm not mistaken, the RFID is the only quest item that was changed to require FiR this patch that wasn't given a hideout craft.

Some basic math for the people who don't seem to understand why I feel this is an issue: The average rouble cost, by binomial distribution, just to get into a labs raid WITH an RFID reader spawned on the map is around 7.5 million roubles assuming 150k per card which is less than the current cost. Keep in mind that is strictly to spawn into a labs run with the reader. That doesn't include the additional requirements which are to be the first to reach it AND be in a game that doesn't have somebody cheating, and then successfully extract. It's a monumental task because of how rampant cheating is.

TLDR: Cheaters turn an already difficult/time consuming quest into a borderline impossible RNG clusterfuck where success has little to nothing to do with skill, game knowledge or anything that should truly represent what it takes to get the Kappa container.

Edit: Hideout craft for RFID has been added, requires 2 signal jammers, 1 virtex and 1 labs keycard, intel center level 2.
