"add area to existing zone" does not work about valetudo HOT 5 CLOSED

can you post the content of the configuration in /etc/Valetudo ? Are the coordinates added in this file?

from valetudo.

I'll test this in the coming day as I've had to upgrade the firmware of the MiRobot and lost my root access.

On a side note, why have you elected to use a different coordinate system compared to the typical 25500 values? https://community.home-assistant.io/t/howto-xiaomi-vacuum-zoned-cleaning/51293

@sebdoan the coordinate system is the same just with the values (the charging base) starting at 0.
The coordinates are in millimetres, so having the base station be 0 makes it easier to visualise going n meters forwards and n metres to the left without having to do heaps of math 😄

valetudo_X = 10000
valetudo_Y = 12000

normal_X = 25500 - 10000
normal_Y = 25500 - 12000

> normal_X: 15000
> normal_Y: 13500

Hi,

I have the same problem (Release 0.0.9 with Gen 1 Vacuum).

What I also tried:
I manually extended the array in "/mnt/data/valetudo/config.json" like this:
{"spots":[],"areas":[["My Room",[[2766,9332,4653,7578,1],[3048,5835,264,10335,1]]]]}

The result:
The vacuum still only cleans the first rectangular; the second one is ignored.
And if I add another zone "My Room2" the second rectangular of "My Room" is removed again.

Hope this helps.

Happy Holidays :-)

Wrote a fix for the problem while adding a rectangular to an existing zone; still investigating why the vacuum is not cleaning all rectangulars :-(
