==========
Life Meter
==========
The life meter represents the number of hits Nick can take before he dies.
The life meter can be replenished by collecting First Aid Kits or Packs.
Hyposprays will also replenish a bit of the life meter.
=========
Psi Meter
=========
Below the life meter is the psi meter. This represents the amount of psi that
Nick has remaining to perform psi abilities. Every psi ability will take away
a different amount from the psi meter depending on which psi ability is used.
The psi meter can be replenished by finding psi power-ups, hyposprays, or by
performing a mind drain on a conscious or unconscious enemy.
=============
Psi Abilities
=============
----------------
Telekinesis (TK)
----------------
Whenever an area is targeted and the target turns yellow or red, that object
can most likely be manipulated by TK. Hold down on the TK (L) button to lift
the object and use the right analog to move or throw it. The harder the TK
button is pressed, the higher the object will go. Nick can actually be on top
of an object while it is being moved with TK; this is called TK Surfing.
(see Advanced Controls for TK Surfing)
----------------
Pyrokinesis (PK)
----------------
Sends a flame wall toward an enemy or object, engulfing every flammable object
in its path into flames. Burning objects can be moved and thrown with
Telekinesis.
-----------------
Mind Control (MC)
-----------------
Mind Control can only be performed when a conscious enemy is targeted and the
target turns red. Once a Mind Control is performed the player will have total
control over the enemy. This will work on every enemy except for Aura Beasts
and Bosses.
-------------------
Remote Viewing (RV)
-------------------
Remote Viewing is an out-of-body first-person viewing that can be used to get
the layout of a room or see the locations and actions of enemies before
entering.
---------------
Mind Drain (MD)
---------------
Mind Drain can only be performed on fallen enemies or from behind an enemy.
Performing a mind drain will refill the psi meter. A conscious enemy will
yield a greater psi recharge.
Mind drain recharge percentages
Dead enemy – (15%)
Live enemy on ground – (25%)
Sneaking up on live enemy (stealth drain) – (75%)
Live enemy on ground and waiting a few seconds – (75%)
(Note: In order to get a 75% recharge while the enemy is on the ground, wait
until the enemy tries to get up. If done correctly, the enemy will hover in
the air as if a stealth drain has been executed.)

--------------
Aura View (AV)
--------------
Aura View is used to see things that are normally invisible to the naked eye.
Aura View will detect body heat, invisible enemies, invisible mines, secret
messages, and weak walls.
=================
Advanced Controls
=================
----------
TK Surfing
----------
Nick can use his TK ability to lift a crate or any movable object up in the
air while he is on top. To perform this stand on top of a crate or movable
object, target it so that the target turns yellow, and then use TK to surf.
This can be used to reach far off areas. There is nearly no limit to where
Nick can go while TK surfing.
-------------------------
Free Aim while TK surfing
-------------------------
When Nick is TK surfing on an object, while still holding the TK (L) button,
press the PK (white) button and this will allow him to freely aim at other
objects or enemies. While free aim is activated Nick cannot move the object
that he is on. Press PK again to cancel free aim and continue surfing.
----------
Multi-lift
----------
While lifting an object with TK, let go of the TK (L) button, and then quickly
press and hold down the button again to lift the object higher. Nick can be
on top of an object while multi-lifting. Targeting the object and holding
down the lock-on (Y) button while multi-lifting can help to make it easier.
Holding a direction with the right analog while multi-lifting can make the
process easier as well, but this eats up the Psi gauge quicker.
