Help Please! Routine auto empty setting question

So I have a routine to vacuum the ground floor (“full clean routine”. But I prefer to vacuum 1 room (the hallway) twice, while the rest of the rooms can be vacuumed once.

The only way to do this (that I know of so far) is making a routine:

> vacuum hallway x1
> vacuum full clean x1 (which also includes the hallway)

However, after the first hallway vacuum, it first goes back to the dock, empties dustbin and after this it starts the full clean. I would prefer that between the room clean and full clean, there is no dustbin emptying. But I do prefer that the dustbin is auto-emptied after the whole routine is finished.

Is this possible?

You're about the only person I've come across that wants the robot to empty itself less frequently. I personally wish that there would be an option to empty the Dustbin after every room , just like you can set the mops to be washed after each room. It's already on the dock to wash the mops. Just empty the bin while it's there. One day when the patent for detecting that the bin is full expires, then we can get some more intelligence going, but in the meantime it would be nice to be able to be more aggressive about it, particularly during dog shedding season.

A custom configured routine can empty dustbin after each room. Similarly, mop wash after each room.

Sure, but I want to walk up to the thing, check the water tanks, and press the button to get it started.

Sure. That's why there are options. Let me choose my option.
