I know a couple of releases back there was a change made that added the number of occupants in a zone and this is reflected in the Zone documentation. I was looking forward to this change exactly for the reason stated in the doc, that being the ability to use this in automations. But unfortunately this doesn’t seem to be working for me, or at least not for my “Home” zone which is defined as:
- name: Home
latitude: !secret latitude
longitude: !secret longitude
radius: 250
icon: mdi:home-circle
But the state never changes from zero! I’m writing this right now from home where there are currently 4 of us located, but the state for Home is still zero. I have buttons defined for a control panel that indicates locations and all four individuals are listed as “Home”. Additionally when we move to other zones these buttons update with the correct zone. Anyone have any ideas why this is not working as one would expect?
