Please see above, this is modded for range and NO Voxel detection.

The reason I ask is because I’m trying to make nukes that detonate 250m above the ground.

What’s the max range for voxel detection? Or do I have to enable that?

Is there a way to edit it to where I don't need several nuclear reactors on my plane to have a functional radar?

working fine on my server

i seem to have run up a bug... i have set up the SG sensor for 250mm on all side to detect my large grid ship and station and have it turn down the shield ... and nothing, then try it on spotlight just in case it had issue with mods and still nothing

LG work as intended

That will require scripting and is not a native function of a sensor / programable block interaction. Maybe one of the new blocks can help as well.

to trigger when it detects enemys and once more to give an all clear.
So in basic to trigger a block when it detects and when it cant detect anymore

Trigger in what way?

I cant get the sensor to trigger programable blocks any help with how I can fix that?
I have a red alart script on the programable block and would love for the sensor to activate that block and maybe the shields in the future

Yes

are the action triggers in the same order as the vanilla sensors?

Work fine in my tests on my servers.

Doesn't seem to work for me

Thats a keen code in game thing and out of my control

It would be awesome if the sensor could distinguish between static and ship grids.

Exactly, thats the script pictured in the images above.

@Taco__ you could use Whip’s Turret base radar in conjunction with this sensor that will give you a situation awareness displayed on a Lcd.

How can I display this on an LCD or cockpit screen, I don't see an option.

Had to ask .

Thanks for the quick reply ;D

That would require scripting skills beyond what I know / have.

Sensor on its own wont do that.

Been a while so here a other question.
Would it be possible to have/create a sensor that detect gravity field
Probably independent of this mod???

Correct

ok had to ask .... i'm guessing that the same for negative value then?

Not possible on sensors in keens code

sorry to bother you once more but i do wanted ask you if it's posbile to add Offset value in the sensor so when you have multiple sensor there won't be overlaping sensor zones and considering that one is setup for activating guns and shield and the other one is for turning them off as a energy saving option.

no these wont work with that, see the above description, cant detect voxels but you can give it a try, keen made some code changes and "asteroids" does appear in the detect settings

I’m guessing that the same goes for P.A.M. (Path auto miner by Keks)?
Since you have not mentioned this one

lol no worries....

I apologize for being blind ... i went directly to comment without checking the description..that my bad sorry.

This md will be terrific for me and the bane for my enemies

Was going for a 4 sensor setup
1) range 10km turn on additional energy generator (14 modded engine that give me 1944 GW of power)
2) range 9.5km activation of shield up
3) range 5km activate all gun turret
4) no more enemie, turn off step 1 to 3) go on stand-by mode.

to quote whips mod info page
"Now supports displaying targets locked with WHAM or LAMP
Now supports displaying objects detected via sensor.
A ship controller is no longer required so you can make really cheap relays."

Yes, whips turret radar now supports this, see the notes and instrtuctions I keyed in above the other day.

Just to confirm something so i can try it once i get back home...
Will Whip's radar script recognizing this as viable source?

audible alert is just the sensors own beep. I have found sensors work better when triggering a timer, that goes for any sensor, vanilla etc

Odd. Any suggestions for troubleshoot? I have set to "audible alert" and "enemy" and bound to action "play" on sound block and it doesn't trigger on enemy approach.

Yes enemy is any hostile grid. Working fin in my same uses ( perimeter detections )

Trying to use as a simple Proximity alert for enemies, set to detect Enemy (nothing else) within 8km, set to trigger a Sound block. But doesn't seem to be working. Does 'enemy' apply to any grid in a hostile faction?

Cool

Slider bar for ranges on the options yes, just like any sensor in the game.

Can we select the range and type.
The premise for my question is this: when detecting a enemy at a certain altitude would activate a timer block that will link set action of powering up both the shield and turrets and a second sensor with same range but below the top one turn them off...
In your opinion would it function that way?

No , as it says above, it wont detect voxels. This was done as that on many machines, because of keens code, if you detect voxels to the maximum range of these sensors, 99 % of the time SE will crash as SE eats all your ram trying to process the data.

Stay save.

Hi. This can by use with autominers scripts like PAM ?
