If the agents is more than 10 meters from an object then it receives
*no* sense information at all, with the single exception of building
fieryness for far buildings. In this case, agents will receive the
fieryness property but nothing else.

The kernel does *not* send a zero to represent "no sense" - it will only
send a zero if the agent actually senses the property.

You can confirm this is the case by looking at the raw data sent in the
KA_SENSE message. If you are using librescue you can use the
"getLastXUpdate" functions to find out when a particular property was
last changed.

Cheers,
Cameron.
