I want to create a agent based model for the task executor and forklift. Could you share a demo model explaining how to achieve that?
How to use a task executor in a A* network for agent based travel?
FlexSim 23.0.8
Can you tell us a bit more about what you need the model to do? In what way is it agent-based? Having an object flow iin FlexSim could be one characteristic of 'agents', and from the toolbox "Agent Systems" provide ways of defining actions based on agent relationship to one another (proximity/ social force). Another key (more illusive) characteristic of agent systems is their display of emergent behaviors (such as pedestrians with opposing flow naturally forming lanes, or starling murmuration).
Hi Jason
So I want to for instance create a area and have 10 AGV on on side of it at start of simulation. Then opposite to it have 3 queues acting as docks. Provide some barriers for these AGV to go through and test if they have move around and find their destination without getting stuck

This is standard Astar behavior - there's no need for agent behavior in what you describe - just give the Astar traveler the travel task. You seem to be asking for a test model for you to test when that's exactly what you need to build.
The tutorial for Astar is based on healthcare/people but you can any AGVs, Transporters, Operators in the same way.
