I have dollys distributed by percentage to contain label value 1 and 2. If the label value is 1 the elevator should pick 2 of those in, if the label value is 2 is should only pick up 1 at a time.
If there's a dolly 1 and then dolly 2 it should still just pick only 1.
Is there a way I can do it?

Hello @Jay K9,
I created a sample model that demonstrates how this could be accomplished with process flow. I keep the capacity of the elevator at 2 the whole time. I use the process flow to control how the items are picked.
You can change the decide activity to look at a different partition (you will also need to swap the outputs). Currently, which ever partition is used in the decide activity is the one the elevator will prioritize picking up.
Please note, I use the 3D logic to control loading the elevator when I move the items into the extra queue. You can eliminate the extra queue and replace the move object logic with a task sequence to load the items.
