Make operator stay next to queue while discharging ?

Hi people, greetings.

So, a friend of mine came to me with this model, and I have no idea how to make the Green Operator (Mario Frank) to stay next to Queue2 while it has flowitems in it.
Mario Frank has to move across the model to transport the raw material, in order to start the Mixer, once the recipe for the combiner called "Mezcladora" is ready, Mario Frank is supposed to move the flowitems from Queue 2 to Separator1. And Yes, he does it, but we realized that he is going to Queue named "arena" every time he transports a flowitem from Queue2 to Separator1. I want him to stay next to Queue2 until said queue is empty and he can start transporting raw materials all over again.

Thank you in advanced for your reply.

Hi @Brayan Leonardo Gil Guevara,

I think you want to process the order one by one, if that is the case, the attached model will work for your situation. In the attached model, I have added one more queue named "Queue3" before the combiner "Mezcladora" and close and open the output of the "Queue3" based on the content available in "Queue2".modelo-actualizado.fsm

Thanks.
