Great blueprint! Improved a good blueprint and made it better. I'm kind of a noob, so I have just one problem. I don't understand how to activate the faces of the magic cube. Could you please advise?

Great blueprint! Improved a good blueprint and made it better. I'm kind of a noob, so I have just one problem. I don't understand how to activate the faces of the magic cube. Could you please advise?

I've got some notes on the blueprint exchange page: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/zha-aqara-magic-cube-69-actions/348204

Note that since this blueprint uses an input number helper to track which side is active, it will only register side changes from valid side actions (again, flip/knock/slide). If you lift the cube, rotate it freely, and then place it down on a different side, this is not registered as a valid action and the tracking variable won’t be updated.

What I do is I don't use the slide action for anything specific, instead I use the slide to register the current face so that I know the rotation is going to apply to that face.

... is what I would say if I were still using my cube - but it's just been way too flaky for me to really rely on. I mostly stick with Aqara buttons now.

I have an issue where if you change the cube face and immediately rotate it, the face does not get updated in the helper. I've changed the mode to queued which fixes this issue.

Hi @rvaidya any reason why the active_face tracker is changing some of the face to a different one? e.g. 2 mapped to 5 and 3 mapped to 6 ?

I found the same -- the active_face_entity was not accurately tracking the correct active face. The zha_event is correctly reporting it, however, so it seems to be an issue with keeing the active_face_entity in sync. I also noticed that the cube's zha_event all show the active face arg in each raised event, so is there any way to modify the blueprint to just pull the active_face from the arg and not use the the active_face_entity at all?

I just noticed this block of code that seems to be the reason for the issues that I am seeing (i.e. wrong activate_face on knock event):

activated_face: >
{% if command == "slide" or command == "knock" %}
{% if trigger.event.data.args.activated_face == 1 %} 1
{% elif trigger.event.data.args.activated_face == 2 %} 5
{% elif trigger.event.data.args.activated_face == 3 %} 6
{% elif trigger.event.data.args.activated_face == 4 %} 4
{% elif trigger.event.data.args.activated_face == 5 %} 2
{% elif trigger.event.data.args.activated_face == 6 %} 3
{% endif %}

It seems on a knock or slide, this is overriding the active_face to be a different face than is indicated in the event arg.
