To whom it may concern,

Attached is the model and the short video ZZZ.fsm

The below Green Colored Drive-in Rack is created on the model itself while the above Grey colored Drive-in Rack is copied from an older file.

Both Drive-in Racks use Matching Labels, Condition: slot.SlotType? == item.Type?

The copied Rack somehow works, but only up to item.Type == 3 even though it has 4 slots.

The newly created Rack that used the same Condition cannot work.

Please assist me to see why it does not work for the newly created Rack and why it did limited for the copied Rack.

Thank you.

The copied rack has had values for the "SlotType" label painted on in the previous model. The new rack doesn't have these. Without the label on the slots, the item label can't be matched against it.
