Regex find digits at the end of multiple strings

Question

Below is my string, its coming from a stdout.

I am looking for a way to find all the decimal numbers for a sensor. I want to provide my regex pattern "TP1" and would like my return to look like this:

[156.2 , 30]

I am using re.findall()

TP1   BCArc                                    156.2
TP2   Max: of output here                      0.01
TP3   some:other example 1 here                30.70
TP1   BCArc                                    30
TP2   Max: of output here                      2.22

I can find the end of a string but not with the input: see here: https://regex101.com/r/IyqtsL/1

Here is the code Im trying

Enable Multiline mode through flags: on regex101.com, that option is available on the right side of the pattern input field (where by default you can see /g. When using the regex in Python, you can pass flags as the third parameter to re.findall():

import re

sensor = "TP1"
text = """
TP1   BCArc                                    156.2
TP2   Max: of output here                      0.01
TP3   some:other example 1 here                30.70
TP1   BCArc                                    30
TP2   Max: of output here                      2.22
"""
re.findall(fr'^{sensor}\s+\w+\s+([\d\.]+)$', text, re.MULTILINE)
# returns ['156.2', '30]

All flags are described in the documentation.
