Force Travel

Hi, how can I force an operator to move?

It seems it is considering the destination to be "close enough", therefore the operator does not move.

If I move further away the destination, then the operator does move.

You can let an operator walk or travel to a location:

Also check the operator got "offset travel for load/unload tasks" enabled.

Hi Joerg,

Thank you but I wouldn't want to use fixed coordinates, because I plan to use hundreds of operators.

As you can see in the attached model, the operator does not move to put a tote in the 5th and 6th rack, even though they are quite far away.

Could you please assist?

Thank you
