Revised for Season 17

With this special scanning device, you can see further, although not clearer for some reason. Now you can make out the outline of zombies even further away...

Construction

• Requirements for the Construction:

• The Predictor must have been unlocked with a blueprint:

• Construction Blueprint (common)

• The Watchtower must have been completed.
• The following resources must be in The Bank and will be used up after completion:

•   1×  Duct Tape
•   1×  Electronic component

• Citizens must spend 20 to complete the building.

• The costs can be reduced to 19 / 18 / 16 / 15 / 13 by Upgrading the Workshop.

Effects

• Once the best possible estimate of tonight's Attack (100 %) is made at the Watchtower, further scans will estimate tomorrow's attack using the Predictor.
  • Another 24 Citizens are required to get the best possible estimate for the next day.

Notes

• A total of 48 citizens would be needed for the best possible estimation of both days. Of course, this is not possible with 40 citizens.
  • But the number of citizens needed can be halved by the Scanner or a Telescope in The Bank.
• Even if the numbers for the following day have been estimated, the next day starts completely at 0 % again.

Changes

• In Season 3:
  • The resource cost dropped from ×2 ×1 ×1 to ×1 ×1.
