The Noise Generator with Long-Range Sensor is a Noise Maker fitted with a motion sensor. It is placed on the ground, armed, and starts its loud noise when something moves within about 5 tiles. The noise draws zombies toward it.
The sensor turns the noise maker into a lure that waits for its moment. The long range reacts the earliest of the three sensor versions. It is made with the Add Long-Range Motion Sensor to Bomb recipe at Electrical 6. The Engineer is the best occupation for explosives. It can make traps and explosives from the start.
Combat
Stand where the lure should go and choose Arm and set Noise Generator with Long-Range Sensor from the item's menu. Place Item only sets it down without arming it. Once placed, it beeps slowly four times, then beeps rapidly and falls silent. The silence means it is armed.
From then on, any movement within about 5 tiles sets it off with no warning. That includes the survivor who armed it. A plain Noise Maker makes noise for about 30 in-game minutes across a radius of about 17 tiles.
The sensor version suits a road or a gap that zombies often pass. A few zombies walking by set it off, and the noise then pulls more of them to the spot. That can lead a group away from a base, or into a planned trap. The short and medium versions wait for movement within 3 and 4 tiles. The timer version goes off after a set delay, and the remote version on command.
Uses
The Add Long-Range Motion Sensor to Bomb recipe takes a Noise Maker, a Motion Sensor, four Scrap Electronics and a Duct Tape. It needs Electrical 6. The same recipe fits a long-range sensor to an Aerosol Bomb, a Fire Bomb, a Pipe Bomb or a Smoke Bomb.

Notes
- Arm and set is the only way to arm it; Place Item leaves it inactive.
- The armed lure makes no sound until something moves close.
- Step well away after arming, since the 5 tile sensor reaches further than the other versions.
- Researching it can teach the long-range sensor recipe.
