Hi Josh, welcome to the community.

Looks like you close but I will walk you through how to do this.
You have two options:

  1. Using this Blueprint (Sensor Light): This option doesn’t include a delay feature. In this case, the light will immediately dim from 100% to 50% as soon as the motion sensor clears, without any delay. If your motion sensor has a built-in delay, you can set that delay to wait before it sends a “clear” signal to Home Assistant. You can also create a template binary sensor that will have a delay for you motion sensor. If you need help just let us know.

  2. Using the Smart Light Blueprint: This option doesn’t include a delay feature, but it removes the need to create a schedule helper. In this case, the light will immediately dim from 100% to 50% as soon as the motion sensor clears, without any delay. If your motion sensor has a built-in delay, you can set that delay to wait before it sends a “clear” signal to Home Assistant. You can also create a template binary sensor that will have a delay for you motion sensor. If you need help just let us know.

  1. Create a schedule and add it into the trigger. Set the time in the schedule to be well before sunset and well after sunrise. Example 4:00pm to 10am.

    How to create a schedule helper our a time of the day sensor helper.

    • Go to settings / Devices and Services / click on the helper tab at the top, then click create helper.
    • Then click “Schedule” or “Time of the day” and input your settings as required.

  2. Add your lights into Light. Use entities only. Then set up your Light Control for 50%.

  3. Use the Sun Elevation condition (Not in night light the main one). Set it up as required.

  4. Enable night lights in Night Lights Settings and use the state condition by Enable entity state option. Then enter in your motion sensor into Night Lights - Entity State

  5. Add your lights into Night Lights.

  6. In Night Light Control set your brightness to 100%. Set the Night Lights - Transition - OFF (this can help you on how long it takes to go from 100% to 50%). Make sure you select If lights are ON, adjust the lights when crossing over.

Your done.
