Energy weapons

I don't know

You need 130 Science skill to disable one of 2 generators on level 6. If you disable 1st then prisoners will escape violently, if you disable 2nd then, they'll escape quietly by using robes.

More precisely weapons using microfusion cells or small energy cells.

I'll give you a hint - It's possible to gain it on Red 4.

Or you can place active explosive next to one of those generators.

No, there's no upgrade for these weapons.
When you have plasma transformer, you can ask Chris about upgrading weapons. You'll have an option to ask for an upgrade after that if you have any weapon he can upgrade in your inventory.

If you mean that computer near forcefields, I have hacked it and there is no way to deactivate those forcefields with it.

I seem to have encountered a bug in the base. I place the explosives near the cooling device and then sneak past the level 6 guard. When I try to go from level 5 to level 3 I get the message that the cooling device was destroyed but nothing else happens. No xp, no countdown, no alert mode, no end-game explosion. It works ok if I stick around on the lower levels when it goes off, but not if it explodes while I'm going from level 5 to level 3. As far as I can tell, the explosives always go off while you're making a trip from level 5 to level 3, no matter what time you set on the bomb itself. Also, if you set a bomb near the prison generator it too will explode during the trip from level 5 to level 3 but you get the xp and the alert every time. I can upload a savegame file if you wish?

Btw, is the explosion always hapening while you're in the elevator an intentional thing? If so, it doesn't really coincide with the game clock and feels a bit forced, imo. You should be able to leave that bomb and just gtfo without being forced to fight everyone on levels 3 to 1. :D

You need to wait on level 6 for the explosion, after that you go to the elevator and escape.

You have to wait on the same map where you placed explosives. If you leave map, they will explode immediately because the game doesn't have the way to track counter a bomb. But the explosion doesn't always work correctly this way, as you have mentioned. Unfortunately, this is just how the engine works.

Ok, that makes sense, and when I think about it I remember that, yeah, there were similar issues with explosives in the old games as well. Thanks for the clarification.
