In my AGV system, I want to install a random storage policy: when for example a red pallet comes in, it should pick a random storage lane. I want to assign a probability to each storage position basically. Now it takes the first available. When another red comes in however, it should be placed in the same storage lane as the previous red pallet.
Can someone please help me with this?

Use a staggered approach when assigning the items to a slot. First search for a slot whose "Type" value is equal to that of the item. If none can be found, search for a slot with no Type label value yet (in random order). If one is found, set the type label to that of the item for the entire bay/level. When the last item leaves the bay/level, reset the label.
This is easiest to do when using the "Find Slot" activity in Process Flow, but you can theoretically implement the same logic in code.
Test some of given picklist options of Slot Assognment Strategy in rack object properties.
