Automation for Code Cracker Game

[dreamy bloom]

So I created a bunch of input_select Options for two cards in my Home assistant dashboards. One inputs a set of five colors, the other (on a different dashboard) sets the correct answer. The automation is supposed to take the input-guess, compare it to the correct answer (when input_button.submit_guess is pressed) and give a result in 'number of correct colors' as well as 'number of correct positions' and increase the counter of guesses by +1. All entities for the input helpers needed are created correctly. I can put a correct code in a card in the Game-Master card and I can put a guess of five colors in the Game-Card. The counter does however not increase and I do not get anything from the card showing correct colors and correct positions. I have the feeling the automation isn't triggered when the input_button is pressed but I don't get any los to check. I have no idea how to code and had Chat-GPT wrie the code for me (i know, i know...). So my best guess is that the code is just gibberish...but since I have no idea how it is supposed to look like, I can't troubleshoot. I'll post the code for the automation in the next post.

here's the yaml code

it doesn't understand that you need namespace
