With [`hide_entity:`](/components/automation/) you can control this behaviour.

It was already dark when the lights went on and the one day you weren't home, the lights turned on anyway. Time for some tweaking. Let's add an offset to the sunset trigger and a condition to only turn on the lights if anyone is home.
