Laser tripwire emitter

Laser Tripwire emitters are traps found in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Characteristics

 * Laser trip wires follow the same general principle for triggering and avoidance. They can be found on walls or on the sides of desks. They will emit a narrow beam of light that will either be horizontal or diagonal from wherever it is positioned.
 * The emitter, attached to an object, is also the point where it can be disarmed or hacked.
 * When they are "armed" they will emit a RED beam.

Locations

 * X-13 research facility - They will trigger when the Courier starts the X-13: Attack of the Infiltrator! and/or Project X-13 quest.

Interactions

 * When an emitter is not on, i.e. not emitting any beam, the Courier can hack the emitters' IFF circuit, allowing safe passage through the now BLUE beam.
 * This can also be done when they are armed.
 * They can also be disarmed completely but only when they are armed.
 * In order to hack or disarm a laser tripwire, the Courier needs at least a Repair skill of 50 or a Science skill of 50.
