@laijunyi1996,

I'm not understanding what you are asking. Can you be a little more specific on what you need to happen in the model? The more information, the better.

Thanks.

when Operator1 put the boxes into queue2, I want driver1 and driver2 to take these boxes into branch1 and branch2,(you can connect travel_to_rest and event_triggered_source in the ProcessFlow to see what I want to achieve) ,but finally by the auto trigger ,without connection.


I hope my model works like this

queue1: inventory

queue2: waiting line

branch: generate demand(random number of box)

first, operator1 take 10 groups of boxes from queue1 into queue2, then flexsim send the demand quantities of each branch to python , then python calculate the best transport route (VRP problem), the drivers transport box along given route.


so I want to achieve that when Operator1 take the box into queue2, drivers can come up and load the box automatically , and when drivers arrive the branch, they can unload the box automatically.

First You have to create the DLL in Python containing the algorithm. If you have that you can call those functions from FlexSim. There are 2 ways to create a DLL. One is the (slightly older) DLL Maker The other option is using the module SDK
