    I can set time, but what about date? hs.EventSetTimeTrigger(Evref, EvntTime)

    I have a script to turn on my previously lit outdoor lights. Now, when that script runs, it creates an event to turn off the lights a at certain time depending on the period of the year.

    ie: Cristmass lights are on later around the 25/12~1/1 but turn off earlier at the begening of dec and the end of jan.

    So sometimes the lights will go out at 11pm (the same day) and sometimes a 1am (the next day!).

    Is there a way to do this with hs.EventSetTimeTrigger(Evref, EvntTime)

    How about having a hs.EventSetDateTrigger(Evref, EvntDate)?

    Well EventSetTimeTrigger accets a .net type of Date so you could pass it a date, quite what it does with that is anyones guess I would imagine that it ignores it as specific date/time events are not that common in HS (as opposed to one which ran at the same time as each day) however I don't know. I also thing that there was a bug at one time with this command that if you sent multiple calls to the same event then you would get the times added onto the event rather than replaced.
