Conditional not evaluated

Hello
I have this blocky script
- vestibulo.jpg (95.76 KiB) Viewed 668 times
The logic is
Code: Select all
If (vest-mov== on and vest-lux <20)
{
set vestibulo = on
if (time > sunset and pasillo == off )
set pasillo = off
}
else
if (vest-mov== off and vestibulo == on)
set vestibulo = off
In plain text: if a movement sensor is on and it's dark, then turn vestibulo light on and if time is after sunset then turn light pasillo on too.
The problem is:
Code: Select all
if (time > sunset and pasillo == off )
set pasillo = off
is evaluate always to TRUE, so it always set vestibulo and pasillo to on when the movement sensor is on and light is under 20.
I can not understand why this logic doesn´t work
Any idea?

Sorry you can't use an "if->do" in another "if->do anymore. I understooth that it was possible years ago, but not anymore...

Thanks for your answer
I solved my problem with a huge conditional.
So this is a problem of Blocky, I cannot understand the reason of this behavior, it's a basic program construction in any language.
Blocky is a good idea for no-programmers, but if it doesn't work....
I think that dZevents will be the language for scripts in Domoticz, at least in my home.
Bye

Sorry for the late response. But is this really true. Who can confirm this?

There are at least 50 posts on this forum confirming that it does not work. I cannot confirm it ever worked though..

I nmy opinion, if you need a complex conditional sentence or complex script it's better to use dzVents, Lua or Python.
