Go to edit types, and add a new device_machine. The Beam Emitter. Spawn in wherever you want the beam to be.

Beam Emitter should be found tags\levels\test\infinity\devices or from any other level with beams.

the beams are meant to be Covenant plasma beams..Or so it says in the novel "The flood".

Uhh..I'm new here but I know for a fact that those are used for communicating with the other rings, and for powering the blast when the ring is actually activated. See halo 2 ending.

The beam emitters come from a forerunner structure.

Umm..no, I'm pretty positive they're from Forerunner structures, and I've read the books.
Could you cite your info?

They are forerunner structures, but the beams hitting the Pillar of Autumn are Covenant Plasma Torpedoes

Zetal so you are saying that somehow the covenant managed to manipulate the towers to shoot directly at the POA?LOL that wouldnt make sense and players would ask what bungie was thinking.

The beams hitting the Pillar of Autumn aren't from those towers, you overconfident dolt.
They're from the Covenant Cruisers in orbit above the ring, not from the Forerunner structures that were placed on the ring.
Honestly, some people...
I mean, now I just might be ranting, but for the love of god, if they were Covenant structures, wouldn't they have UNITS POSTED AT THEM?

Christ.
