Pressor field

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

A pressor field was a type of force field similar in principle to a tractor beam but instead inverted so as to create an effect of applying external pressure to an object. It essentially pushed an object rather than pulled. Pressor or tractor fields were too diffuse to cause any difference in organics or small vehicles. However, larger vehicles were at risk of repulsor failure.
