Multiple Transporter Not Travelling to & loading Pallets from Stack

Hello, I am trying to dispatch 6 transporters to load one pallet at a time from a stack (of 15 pallets). I get an error attached. Can you help me identify the problem or where I have a disconnect? I also attached my model for your reference. Thank you. annotation-2024-08-12-173928.pngLoadUnloadRackRev10a.fsm

You're giving the Picker a travel task to an object that is not on the network.

which is here:

You can load the pallet and the picker will use offset travel to find the object it contains. A travel task needs a destination on the network, so I would connect the rackQueue object to the network and first tell the Picker to travel to that object.

Attached is a version where I've made this connection:

and change the travel task to be the pallet location rather than the pallet.

(I also removed some empty Process Flow and enabled the network drawing - if you want to hide some of the network, choose a node to keep and left click on it while holding 'x' to cycle the network draw modes)
