Overview
A Door Controller. Will manipulate the state of the closest door when it receives power
Reach for it whenever a door has to open without anyone walking up to it. The controller works on the door closest to it, so put it right beside the one you mean, with no other door nearer, and feed its input from your circuit with the wire tool. When power comes in, the door moves.
A real case: your group holds the roof in an online fight and a teammate gets pushed back into the compound with no way in. Someone flips a switch on the roof, and the garage door below rolls open for him. Nobody had to run four floors down and back up. The same input can come from an RF receiver if you want to open up from horseback, as plenty of groups do.
Watch out
The controller does not care who sends the power. Wire it to a pressure pad or a sensor outside and it opens for raiders too. Keep the trigger inside your walls, and the main entrance on a code lock rather than on electricity.
It costs 75 frags at a Level 1 bench, so a spare one for testing is easy to afford.

Direct hit, hard side, no duds. Satchel Charge is a dud 20% of the time. Beancan Grenade is a dud 15% of the time. A range runs from point blank to the far end of the bullet's falloff, fired from an Assault Rifle.
