Feature request: set climate to away/none instead of off/on

[mouth4war]

Can we have a flag for climate entities setting to presets away instead of off, none instead of on? This is useful for heaters.

Release 3.0.0 (currently on beta) supports changing climate mode instead of on/off, might solve?

[mouth4war]

How do you configure that? Don't believe I saw any option for it.

[jseidl]

You don't, it just changes between HVAC_MODE_OFF (which might not be what you want) and HEAT/COOL (whatever is available for the climate device), see https://github.com/jseidl/hass-magic_areas/blob/release/3.0.0-beta/custom_components/magic_areas/climate.py#L450-L473

[mouth4war]

I meant preset mode not HVAC mode

[mouth4war]

Hi is there any more information required?

[jseidl]

No further info. It's on the backlog!

[jseidl]

@mouth4war can you check if the new behavior on 3.0 solves this for you?

Was this ever added? For sure the ability to change to/from a defined climate preset based on presence would be very useful.
