Updating april-soil.yaml to work on two devices

[peterbarbosa]

Hello,

I have successfully flashed your code onto one of my April Soil Sensors, but when I create a new project, copy the code and change the device name, it seems like the new device doesnt work.

I can see the new entry on MQTT HA, but it doesn't show any sensors listed.

Here is the code between the two devices:

Is there something I'm missing or should be changing so I can have more then 1 April soil sensor?

[peterbarbosa]

Here is what Im seeing in MQTT/HA.

Both devices show up, just only 1 has sensors. Ive tested both boards, and both were OK until I connect the other to the network.

[peterbarbosa]

Okay, I've renamed the entities and entities ID for each sensors project - and that seems to have fixed it!

Sorry for reply delay. Thanks for you update also!
