I have never tried that exact code before, but I believe line 117 is only false one minute a day. (the last minute before midnight)
If my hunch is correct, then perhaps changing it to:
is greater than 00:00 might make it work 100% of the time…
Edit:
Honestly, I would not change line 117 until you have tested my earlier recommendation… If line 59 fails, the entire piston will not do as you want
I am clicking the image in the original post (way above) because all I see is the image. How do I actually get the code and import it? I don’t see that anywhere. I am not referring to the web core dashboard. Thank you for any help
The backup code is found at the top of any green snapshot
Once you import it, you will often have to point to your devices to get the piston to work.
A good habit is to look at the original piston while doing this, so you can verify the right devices go in the right section.
What brand of lights is everyone using for this piston.
I would like to utilize this piston for string lights. My plan is to have string lights on my windows and have them change color according the monthly holidays.
Thank you!
Does anyone know how to modify this piston (top post) so that it pauses when none of the holidays are active in the restrictions. I want to resume my normal pistons when there isn’t a holiday.
I tried to add the following lines 103 - 124 (tweaked the original for my needs) but it isn’t working
I’ve recently switched from Smartthings to Hubitat, but it looks like Webcore on Hubitat is no longer happy with this piston
It changes the lights for about ~40 seconds, then the piston terminates.
║executeStatement: Execution time exceeded by 40027ms, TerminatingLooks like it has something to do with this code because when I comment it out, the piston works as expected. I’ll open a github issue:
long overBy=checkForSlowdown(rtData)
if(overBy>0){
long delay=(int)getPistonLimits.taskShortDelay
if(overBy>10000){
delay=(int)getPistonLimits.taskLongDelay
}
String mstr="executeStatement: Execution time exceeded by ${overBy}ms, "
if(repeat && overBy>(int)getPistonLimits.executionTime){
error "${mstr}Terminating", rtData
rtData.terminated=true
repeat=false
}else{
long a=doPause("${mstr}Waiting for ${delay}ms", delay, rtData)
}
}Whoops, I actually linked the wrong github repo, but I’m up to date, and the correct link is here (relevant code is still in the file)

*/
static String version(){ return 'v0.3.110.20191009' }
static String HEversion(){ return 'v0.3.110.20200821_HE' }Also, (not sure if related to commenting out) but it appears that even after pausing the piston, it continues to execute until I reboot the hub. Seems like pausing it isn’t enough to break the ‘while’ loop
Hi All, sometimes I want to change the colors for a holiday once it’s already running. How do I do that? Hitting the pause button and restarting doesn’t work, as it maintains the existing variable colors. How do I reset those colors to the new const string colors?
If you are using the piston from the first post, the colors are calibrated every day at 30 minutes before sunset.
Anyone have or using an updated stream for Halloween music? I don’t think the one in this piston works anymore.
Is this right? true = pause and false = resume? You have only when @pauseHLCRaFp is true throughout the piston. Shouldn’t be true = resume and false = pause?
I’ve got the piston working great, but I’m trying to have two of the lights mirror each other.
I’ve got a total of 5 lights but I want lights 4 and 5 to behave the same.
Any help is appreciated…
@bangali First off, let me say that this piston is amazing and was my entry-point into using webCoRE. I’ve since gone down the rabbit-hole—sometimes successfully and sometimes not. 
I wanted to get the community’s thoughts on ideas for keeping the “default” lights from flickering/blinking via the levelHigh/levelLow while retaining that functionality during holidays? I’ve played around with it, but I can’t seem to get it… Any ideas? Thanks!
@bangali There seems to be an issue with this piston and webcore on Hubitat. I tested with the stock piston, my piston and only a valentine’s day + default piston and all of them have the same issue:

I have two colored light bulbs on our front porch. My wife wants them to rotate colors, but wants them both to be the same color example both red, then both fade to blue, etc. Is there a way to do that?
