It is a matter of Offset Travel. While you load or unload any taskexecuter can do an offset travel to go straight to the item.

  1. You can switch off the ability for Offset Travel in the taskexecuter. Maybe you do it dynamically, if he arrives at certain stations.
  2. You can replace the tasktype load by move object.
  3. You can keep him on a Network. This is similar to 1.
  4. You can insert another queue, that will store only items that actually are assigned to a transport task in the near future. Then items aren’t stacked like a tower.
  5. You can set the location of items that a taskexecuter is going to carry to a lower location.
  6. You can set a different stacking method like do not stack. Then all items are in the center of the queue, but you won’t see how many items are in the queue visually anymore.

The operator does not jump. He travels to the queue3, which is 1m above zero ground level. You can add a network node path in your model! Or you can add to the location of every entering item a height of 1m and place the queue3 back to ground level.
Please Update your model to newest FlexSim version.
Thanks!
