Sensors not working to detect players

It appears that sensors are no longer functioning. I have turned on the viewable sensor range, engaged all options to detect players, and turned the sensors on and off, and it appears that sensors are no longer detecting players.

Hello Engineer,

Thank you for reaching out on our forum regarding this issue.

Could you please provide us with some additional information?

When we tested the sensors on our side, they appeared to be working correctly.

Are you playing the game and using the sensors in Survival or Creative mode? Please note that since version 1.210, if you have the "Untargetable" option enabled, this behavior is working as intended.

Please see the related thread here:

If you are experiencing this issue while playing in Survival mode in a vanilla world (without mods), and you are not using any relevant options from the Admin Screen, could you please provide us with the affected save file, as well as steps to reproduce the issue or a video showing the problem occurring on your side?

You can access your save files by typing %appdata% into the Windows search bar. This will take you to the hidden Roaming folder. From there, navigate to: "\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves". There should be a folder containing your Steam ID and your saved worlds.

Please zip the affected save folder and attach it here. If you have difficulty attaching the file, you can alternatively use Google Drive. When sharing a Google Drive link, please make sure that it is accessible and downloadable by anyone with the link.

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

I started a new world and sensors were working fine there. I also opened a couple other different saves, and the sensors were working there. Luckily the world where sensors were not working was just a throwaway file i was using to mess around.
