Why use random available slot not working?

Hi guys!

My very simple model for a yard is having trouble finding a parking spot in a floor storage grid when using the Random Bay, Level, and Slot with Space. I attach the model, the trucks just pile up. I'm SURE I'm doing something wrong. B2M1 Patio V2.fsm

The problem is in the "Random Bay, Level, and Slot with Space" option that you have selected. It uses the truck size to verify that it can physically fit in the slot. Your floor storage z height does not look large enough to fit a truck. I often forget about that as well. Space available is size based, not content based. Either change the option to "Random Bay, Level, and Slot", or modify the "with space" option, or make your floor storage big enough to fit the trucks.
