hi @GerryCrooked, I have the exact same issue. I managed to copy the code from the Advanced UI and sort out all the icons and stuff, but when I clicked on the rooms (to select which rooms to start cleaning), the number starts with 2 instead of 1. I am trying to figure out why that is such a case but cant find anything..

Running HA 2023.6.1

Found it @GerryCrooked ...

  state: >
    {% set room_name = "living_room" %}
    {% set queue = trigger.to_state.state.split(",") %}
    {{ queue.index(room_name)+1 if room_name in queue else 0 }}

you need ti create the above under template: for each room_name
I changed mine to this and it worked, started from 1

  state: >
    {% set room_name = "living_room" %}
    {% set queue = trigger.to_state.state.split(",") %}
    {{ queue.index(room_name) if room_name in queue else 0 }}                       #<--- took out the + 1 in this statement

@mohamadfarhanmelb Please don't delete the +1 , because it is required

I think both of you have some value (ex. a value from setting up) in the input_text entity. Can you please open the developer tools and verify that your input_text entity is empty (no , or any value), if no room is selected

@edenhaus yeah a mistake there.... the array input_text.xxxxxxx already has "unknown" as its first entry.
Any new button that I clicked after that will be added on to the list, for example, "nknown,laundry".
Any idea what could have caused this?

Also, out of the blye, wondering how can I create a specific queue for multiple area of the same type.
For example...

rooms:
bedroom:
- 1
- 13

I have classified 2 area as of type bedroom in my Ecovacs app.
How do I create a qeuue specficially for bedroom1 and bedroom13?

• unique_id: deebot_dobby_queue_bedroom1
  name: deebot_dobby_queue_bedroom1
  state: >
  {% set room_name = "bedroom" %} <---- what do I put the room_name as for bedroom1
  {% set queue = trigger.to_state.state.split(",") %}
  {{ queue.index(room_name)+1 if room_name in queue else 0 }}
• unique_id: deebot_dobby_queue_bedroom13
  name: deebot_dobby_queue_bedroom13
  state: >
  {% set room_name = "bedroom" %} <---- what do I put the room_name as for bedroom13
  {% set queue = trigger.to_state.state.split(",") %}
  {{ queue.index(room_name)+1 if room_name in queue else 0 }}

Use the developer tools to set the input_text entity to an empty state (in other words to delete/clear the state). Afterwards the count should start with 1

This is not possible with the current example, but you can extend it to support this functionality. Feel free to open a PR to update the example
