Here's an example of how this could be build.

The On Continue trigger of the decision point sends the item to the closest PE that is not blocked.

The Process Flow stops items if all PEs are blocked.

Keep a label on the Decision Point that tracks how many items have been send to what lane and decide where to send the item based on that instead of the Photo Eye states.

Whenever an item is send to lane increment the respective value by 1. The Uncover trigger of the PE in that lane would then decrement the value again.
