So this could very well be cleaned up and be made simpler (it was the first 'advanced' thing I programmed in C4 a few days after getting C4 going and I whipped it up in about 15 minutes), but it's still going strong and I haven't had to mess with it:

IFTTT config:

• Phrases/strings used from PushOver need to be matched exactly in your IFTTT Action Detected programming
• Each phone/device will need to have a IFTTT account and Pushover account (as outlined in the documentation)

Variables needed:

• Name: <PersonA>Home Type: Boolean
• Name: <PersonB>Home Type: Boolean
• Name: <Person...N>Home Type: Boolean
• Name: OccupancyCount Type: Number
• Name: OccupancyCountPrev Type: Number
• Name: OccupancyCountTemp Type: Number

Macros needed:

• GetOccupancy (the main logic)
• FirstArrival (homemade trigger event, called by GetOccupancy; place events/actions to happen on the first arrival here)
• AnyArrival (homemade trigger event, called by GetOccupancy; place events/actions to happen on any arrival here)
• AnyDeparture (homemade trigger event, called by GetOccupancy; place events/actions to happen on any departure here)
• LastDeparture (homemade trigger event, called by GetOccupancy; place events/actions to happen on last departure here)

Programming:

• IFTTT Action Detected (this will be for each phone/account, only showed one here)
  • 

 

• When Macro GetOccupancy is executed
  • 

 

• When Variable <PersonA>Home Changes
  • Execute Macro 'GetOccupancy'
• When Variable <PersonB>Home Changes
  • Execute Macro 'GetOccupancy'
•  When Variable <Person...N>Home Cha nges
  • Execute Macro 'GetOccupancy'
