AMR avoid passing on network node

Hello,

I apparently did all that was advised to solve this behavior of doesn't block space on networknode:

1) Navigator mode on task executers:

2) Set to non-passing on nodes;

3) Set to max travelers 1 on nodes;

4) Spacing on node;

Any other advice? Here is the model:

test1.fsm

Thanks.

A path network built of network nodes behaves as a routing system of streets. It emulates a system of multi lanes. If you need a behavior similar to railways you are better of with AGV's.

Edit: Even if you cannot upload your working model, an example model would fit, too. And such a model can have a small size.

I uploaded the reduced model on the main comment, i've seen some cases using the network as well, could you check what i did wrong please?

The non-passing setting does not work when you stop stop task executers. Probably because the travel logic of other TEs is not updated and they previously calculated that they would not need to stop on the path.

As Jörg mentioned, AGV paths with an accumulation behaviour might be better suited for this use case.

I just created the new model with AGV paths but still didn't work.

still behaving like this:

Here is the model, you can see the error at 8:36:40 simulation time.

Just set Path22's Accumulation Type to "Default Accumulation" and the other AGV will queue until the stopped AGV resumes.
