I like the system HA has built in for determining whether a person is home or away based on multiple trackers for a number of reasons.
How would I create a condition in my automation based on the home or not_home state of a person entity itself rather than having to pick a specific tracker entity?

Just the state of the person entity
No different from the device_tracker entities or any entity

I'm new so maybe I'm just being stupid, but I can't figure out how. If I pick an entity state condition block and select a person entity, the home state isn't listed under the selectable attributes.

The state, not the attribute
And you may need to type home or not_home. It doesn't necessarily know the possible values

Oh would you look at that. I didn't realise home and not home showed up as options under state because I hadn't clicked on it whilst the attribute field was blank. Silly me.
