How It Works

1. Place the controller facing the area you want to protect.
2. Supply constant DE to keep the field active.
3. Add upgrades to increase dimensions or improve efficiency.
4. The field collapses automatically when power is lost.

Notes

• Sneaking players are not damaged by barrier pulses.
• Barrier effectiveness depends on facing and clear projection path.
