[Feature Request]: Loitering notification for packages #231

Open rfam13 opened 1 week ago

rfam13 commented 1 week ago

Describe what you are trying to accomplish and why in non technical terms To have the loitering notification be for specific objects.

Describe the solution you'd like An option to select or list the objects you want to receive a loitering notification for.

Describe alternatives you've considered Turning it on for all objects.

Additional context For my use, this would act as a package reminder. I like to be alerted about detections but do not necessarily need loitering notifications for all of them. However if there is a package in my yard and is still there 30minutes later I'd like to receive another notification.

And thank you for enhancing this blueprint, great work!

I've personally never used the loitering feature so it's not an area of great expertise for me.

To begin with, could a second automation just for packages be an option?

Oh yea there's no need to dive into it, I thought you may have an easy way of adding it. I currently have an automation for packages that works fine, I've never used the loitering either just seemed like a cool addition to an already stacked blueprint.
