Description

Description of issue

Copying from https://github.com/ScavStation/ScavStation/issues/868.
Don't have super specific details for this one, opening to remind myself to retest and identify specific problems.

Difference between expected and actual behavior

Sensors shouldn't work when reporting a lack of power, and should work when reporting power.

Steps to reproduce

Examine a ship sensor system.

Specific information for locating

Science shuttle on ministation consistently had issues with this last time I looked at it.

Length of time in which bug has been known to occur

Unclear, quite awhile.

Client version, Server revision & Game ID

Scav was using Neb stable when this was reported but I don't have a specific rev.

Research direction

Start by examining the ship sensor system, especially the science shuttle on ministation, and reproduce the reported power-status inconsistency. Compare sensor operation with its reported power state; done means sensors do not work when reporting no power and do work when reporting power.
