Can you give more detail on the math comparisons you wanted to do but were unable to do in a local meshbot ?
And maybe show that vs a cloud meshbot?
I know if you followed my original guide here, I was using a “Cloud” variable to store the bit of weather data I was interested in.
However I later found out that Cloud Variables are only of string type.
So me storing a number in a string variable and then trying to do a Meshbot rule trigger like temp > than X number didnt work properly.
The Cloud variable for that to work and do the math properly would of needed to be an integer variable instead.
So that was a limitation I found. I created a ticket to see if other types of variables other than string could be used for a “Cloud” variables, but I never heard anything about it I dont think.
I then moved on to doing it the other way here and not using the Nucal Cloud service way and just using a HTTP command, two variables one string one integer and that lua script. More difficult to setup, but it worked better as I then was using the integer variable in my rules trigger etc.
