Unable to Update Batch Size of Queue during Model Run

Hello, I am trying to create a queue (palletizer) that changes batch sizes halfway during the model run, even if the last batch isn't completed yet. I want to destroy all components out the queue and start a brand new batch with a new batch size. When I do that (see the process flow logic in my model attached), the new batch size gets set, but the queue no longer produces batches. Any ideas on how to get the new batch size queue to create batches? Thanks!

Hello, I think the problem is you've forgotten to clean the "currentbatchsize" in the "CartonPackPalletizerBatch4".

setvarnum(Model.find("CartonPackPalletizerBatch4"), "currentbatchsize", 0);

It's similar with updating the "batchsize".
