Cardboard Box

The Cardboard Box is a tool in Streets of Rogue which will completely disguise the player from NPCs as long as they don't move into a Hostile NPC or take damage.

Tips and Strategies

 * Using the Cardboard Box disguise will let you move around freely in front of Security Cameras and Cop Bots without raising an alarm or making them hostile, respectively. (only tested with Hacker's Installed Malware Cop Bots as of now).
 * If an NPC walks nearby or touches your Cardboard Box while you are hiding, the item will be removed from your inventory and you will be uncovered immediately. If you are trespassing, the NPC will also instantly become hostile toward you. This happens even if you're staying still.
 * Because of this, it is highly recommended to memorize the routes of NPCs before attempting to use the cardboard box, staying out of their path and only moving when not in sight.
 * Taking damage while using the Cardboard Box will also consume the item and remove it from your inventory. It is not recommended to use the Cardboard Box in rooms without any NPCs especially in Industrial hideouts where there are a lot of traps. It's a good idea to put the box in your numbered toolbar to quickly unequip the Cardboard Box in empty rooms and re-equip it only when near NPCs or Security Cameras.
 * While using the Cardboard Box, Hostile NPCs will only attack the player whilst moving if they're trespassing. This is good to keep in mind as you can more quickly sneak past NPCs who have become hostile in the streets, and without the need to wait for them to pass. This can also be utilized to quickly lose any pursuers by breaking line of sight and putting the box on so long as the Hostile NPC has not witnessed you using the Cardboard Box or has not discovered you using one once before.
 * Only NPCs who are Hostile, Annoyed or whose property you are trespassing on will remove your Cardboard Box when touched. Non-Hostile or Friendly NPCs can be freely moved past without fear of discovery.

Trivia

 * This is clearly a reference to the Metal Gear series, where cardboard boxes can be used by the player to hide in plain sight as long as they remain still.
