Hey all,

I just installed huegmagic-fork and for some reason I'm having trouble with 1 single group. When I inject to test the group, the lights will turn on, but it will not report the status of the group and when I call for a status query, it says the group is turned off even when it's turned on in the Hue app and I can see them burning.  
All other groups and separate bulbs work perfectly fine.

Any idea on where I need to look?

The trigger injects into a change node which will change to payload to an object that the Hue nodes need.

You can see that the Backyard group is not reporting a status, while Front is. Even when I remove the node, readd it, redeploy etc etc. Only this specific group will not work. The last debug entry is from when doing a query on the node. Lights of the group where turned on, but it reported on: false.

Edit: The regular action nodes, linked to the area entity or group entity work normal for these lights. Just not the Huemagic group for this specific group. Rather annoying lol

For some reason removing the "Room" in the Hue app and recreating it, did the trick.
