Operator Load/Unload AGV at each Work Station

Does someone have an example of an operator loading/unloading an AGV.. The example here doesn't work for my problem. Please see attached model I'm trying to develop in my learning of the software.agv-operator.fsm

FlexSim 18.0.10
agvoperators
agv-operator.fsm (38.1 KiB)
5 |100000

You could add something in process flow that makes the operator work on something till an event trigger is hit when the Task Executer shows up. Or you can make a 3D connection like I did in this example.

@zachary.h what would you need to add to have the operator work the process prior to it loading it on the AGV like the example I uploaded?

@zachary.h - Another part of the question. Is I'm using a dispatcher and 4 AGVs to move material to each of the stations. I get the 1st and 3rd AGVs to pick up material and move around the network, but the 2nd and 4th AGV stay at the starting point an don't move even though there is a part to pick-up. Why is this?? They are all connected the same way so I would figure they would act the same way. What do I need to do/change to make these AGVs work properly?
