Sending package to queue from conveyor

I'm trying to build a simple conveyor model where the items are sent to a queue based on a specific label "Type". For some reason out of the 4 types on 2 are ending up on the queue while "Type" 1 and 4 stay on the conveyor. Not sure what the issue is since I've built them the same way. Simple Conveyor model.fsm

Software Version:

FlexSim 24.0.2

conveyor queue label

By default items will always move to the farthest point possible in a conveyor system. If you want them to exit through a transfer that is not the one closest to the end of the conveyor (measured from the midpoint of the transfer) you have to send them there. Just how you send the items to the three lanes.
