Calculated parameters in Python

I would like to use python code to enumerate parameters in flexsim.

In this way, I send the given parameters in this example, type and weight, to Python and it returns me a calculated value that I can use in the model.

Is there a way to do this ?

python-test.fsm:

pyfunction.py

Software Version:

FlexSim 23.2.1

code python functions

pyfunction.py (168 B)

Your use command should only contain this:

/**external python: */ /**/"pyfunction"/**/
/** \nfunction name:*/ /**/"Flex"/**/

But you should specify the parameter types in the command gui:

Check that the code has been applied in the UserCommand Gui as well as the code gui, and that the python module is in the same directory as the model.
