beamteam
is a point entity available in Black Mesa. Essentially a duplicate of beam. Used by tripmines to imitate laser beam. Most likely it exists for the ability to set the color of the laser in Team Deathmatch and for the ability to filter players to whom tripmine reacts. All inputs and outputs are the same as in beam.
