Multitool (DX)

The multitool is an item in Deus Ex that is used to manipulate electronic locks, security cameras, autogun turrets, alarms and other security devices. A maximum of 15 multitools can be held in the inventory.

Background
According to the UNATCO Training Manual, the multitool can dynamically alter current flow in almost any non-hardened circuitry. However, multitools cannot be used for computer information extraction.

Use
Multitools work by "bypassing" security devices to the following effects (when the device is fully bypassed):


 * Acoustic sensor - A multitool can be used to disable the acoustic sensor.
 * Alarm sounder panel - A multitool can be used to disable the alarm panel, preventing enemies from using it.
 * Turrets - A multitool can be used to turn the turret to the "Ignore all" state.
 * Electronic control panel - A multitool can be used to disables whatever it was linked to, such as laser tripwires or electrical hazards.
 * Security Keypad - A multitool lets you process the keypad without knowing its code. In general, bypassing keypad will unlock a door or other locked object that is linked to the keypad to the same effect of correctly entering the keycode.
 * Retinal scanner - A multitool can be used to open the door without clearance.
 * Security camera - A multitool can be used to disable the camera.

Each multitool is a single-use consumable item that is permanently expended when it is used. The effect of a single multitool depends on the user's electronics skill, as shown below. At higher electronics skill levels, multitools have higher "strength," which corresponds to the maximum amount of bypass strength of the security device that can be reduced per multitool.

Multitool cannot be used to access personal computers and security computers, which are instead hacked using the computer skill.
