Struggling stacking in rack by item type

I am currently working on stacking things in a rack by item type and the code I am using doesn't seem to be working the way it was intended. I believe the issue is that the function rackgetitembybaylevel does not get a reference to the item.type. Is that correct? And if so how would I go about checking a bay/level in a rack if the item to be stacked has the same item type

Is it possible to attach the model so we can see what's happening?

The other issue I am having is that I need the stacks to only go to a certain height as well as being stacked by item type which is why I didn't use the by expression logic

Awesome thank you! Would you be able to tell me what I was doing wrong/what you did to fix it so that I can learn from it?

All the code I added is found in the exit trigger of the queue. Part of it was you were trying to compare an Object against an Object.Type, but also I've had issues dealing with the level and bay codes separately, so I just wrote code that would assign both Bay and Level in the code I added to the exit trigger of the Queue.
