Movement & Visuals

Hello,

I asked a question earlier in January, here is the link Task Executor Movement. @Kavika F model-1-v3-carleton.fsm did a wonderful job in helping me. I have new issues that have arose from merging Kavika's hard work & my thought processes for my model/experiment (current version attached):

Current issues
1) Task Executor labeled as Transporter does not want to pick up the pallet to take it to the rack area; and, therefore (although it may have its own logic problems), the 2nd TE labeled as Sideloader does not function.
2) The sideloader TE should separate the totes from the pallet 3 totes at a time (a process flow logic that I need to write, possibly need help writing).
3) By observation, I assume that the final empty-looking pallet in Queue labeled as StandTurnTable has all 6 totes but the visual disappears. I am not sure if it is a missed input/logic on my part or that the pallet cannot support, visually, the 6 totes with 14 boxes each.

As always, any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

1) The transport does take the pallet once the StandTurnTable has collected 6 pallets - as defined by it's batch quantity property.

2) & 3) There are no totes on the pallets as you are joining them in the combiner
