Module Virtual Pet

Virtual Pet

Module type: virtual_pet · Category: Interactive · Pro

A digital pet whose mood is driven by your smart home data. Tamagotchi vibes, but the food is sensor.cpu_temperature.

Features

• Animated pet sprite with multiple moods (happy, sad, hungry, sleepy, sick, angry)
• Mood is driven by mood rules — entity state and threshold pairs you define
• Tap interactions (pet, feed, play)
• Per-mood animations and sounds (where supported)
• Daily care reminders (optional)

Configuration

Pet

• Pet name
• Pet type / sprite — pick a character
• Personality — affects animation cadence

Mood rules

Each rule maps an entity condition to a mood:

entity:    sensor.cpu_temp_living_room
when:      > 30
mood:      angry

Multiple rules combine — first matching rule wins (configurable priority).

Actions

Tap the pet → custom action (defaults to nothing). Long-press for "feed" / "play" interactions.

Logic / Design

Standard 4-tab editor.

Examples

• "Get sad if the dishwasher hasn't been run in 3 days"
• "Get angry if CO₂ is above 1200 ppm"
• "Be happy when all the doors are locked"

Notes

• This module is intentionally whimsical. Use Logic-and-Conditions to keep it on a kid-facing dashboard, or hide it during work hours.
• The sprite is cached locally — first load downloads the asset.
