Design[]
It looks like two poles, that line up to the track (Or where they meet) and when placed, they create a yellow barrier which sparks every once in a while.

Technical[]
Whenever a Bloon touches the barrier, it loses one layer. Does not damage MOAB-Classes as it only removes layers. It can damage MOAB-Classes after being upgraded. It can only remove layers on certain bloons until upgraded. When it's 0/0, it can only remove layers on Pink Bloons and below. Has 6 HP. For every layer it pops, it gets 2 XP. For every ceramic it strips, it gets 10 XP. For every MOAB Class it pops, it gets 50XP (400 if it's a ZOMG)
Hotkey: _ (Shift + -)
Desc: The Light Barrier strips layers off of your bloons, but it can only strip layers off of weak bloons until you can empower its light. It can't affect MOABs until it gains incredible power by the most powerful upgrades.

Trivia[]
- When the track length is wider than usual, the poles will extend to accommodate the wider track length.
- This was designed for roundabout tracks like Race Track and Three Times Around. It's OP, but I tried to make it expensive.
- I, uh, have nothing else special to say about this tower. (BOO YOU STINK)
