So, until recently, I’ve not been able to get Sunrise / Sunset events to trigger my Routines (which in turn also triggered my modes) which all of my automation was driven off of. After getting my sun state fixed I was still having issues getting my Routines to act right. What was good yesterday mig…

Yeah, it’d be more correct to say: “The only thing missing, imho, is…” I only have a few dimmers and honestly don’t play much with dimming other than maybe once or twice a month… if that.

Yep, instead of using logic like - Set these lights --> Set to on and to this level. It should be - This light --> Switch on and this level This light --> Switch on and this level This light --> Switch on and this level This light --> Switch on and this level This light --> Switch on and this…
