Waiting Line Capacity

Can you set the capacity of a waiting line? I would like to have people more from one line to another before acquiring a location., but the second line should have limit, whereby you only move from one waiting line to another if the second line does not exceed 5 people.

There's no setting on the line itself, but you can easily do this with a numeric Resource by making people acquire one of the limited "spots" before moving to that line. See the attached model.

WaitingLineCapacity.fsm

If you want to enforce the capacity on multiple lines that people can choose from things get a little trickier, but there's an example in this post https://answers.flexsim.com/questions/88061/multiple-waiting-lines-and-max-capacity-of-waiting.html.
