How to make an AGV select a path based on flow item type?

In my AGV network simulation, I'd like my AGVs to select one out of 2 or more paths whenever they come to control points that have multiple paths emanating from a single path. I want to override the default path based on the shortest distance. This is what happens in my model, the AGV irrespective of the type of flow item always takes the shortest path. This results in only one path being used and leads to congestion.

Hi@Ravi Vengadam,

Here is a simple model which I have made. Pls check it. Mainly I used waypoint logic to define the routing based on the flow item type.

Object CP1 = model().find("ControlPoint4");
Object CP2 = model().find("ControlPoint3");
if(te.subnodes.length>0)
{
  Object item = te.subnodes[1];
  if(item.Type==1)
  {
	agv.redirect(CP1,REDIRECT_AS_FINAL);		
  }
 else
 {	
	agv.redirect(CP2,REDIRECT_AS_FINAL);	
 }
}
