PRTG plugin where an object doesn't exist #10

Hi there, I hope it's not too much ask if you've come across working around a host or sensor that doesn't exist.

I may not have a ping sensor for all devices, so if, in metrics, I choose

group [named group] device: * sensor: Ping

at that point it just hangs and takes prtg with it (the health of the box just drops)

It's the same for any type of query that may return an objectid that doesn't exist. Have you come across any workaround that if the sensor doesn't exist for a device, or a host doesn't exist in a group, to prevent that situation of hanging everything?

I don't think I've seen such behavior before. When you say the "object" doesn't exist, what happened to it, exactly?
