Abstract: The singularitiy inside a spherical charged black hole, coupled to a spherical, massless scalar field is studied numerically. The profile of the characteristic scalar field was taken to be a power of advanced time with an exponent $alpha>0$. A critical exponent $alph{a}_{mcrit}$ exists. For exponents below the critical one ($alpha<alph{a}_{mcrit}$) the singularity is a union of spacelike and null sectors, as is also the case for data with compact support. For exponents greater than the critical one ($alpha>alph{a}_{mcrit}$) an all-encompassing, spacelike singularity evolves, which completely blocks the ``tunnel inside the black hole, preventing the use of the black hole as a portal for hyperspace travel.
