Flexsim Wall Identification and Duplication

Hi,

Attached is a screenshot of a portion of my model and A* Navigator Properties. As seen from the screenshot, my model has a lot of walls, but it seems like the A*Navigator only show 5 walls. May I know how flexsim identify/separate walls?

Also, it seems like after adding all the 5 walls reflected into the A*Navigator, all the walls in my model gets duplicated. Would like to also check how we can correct/prevent this duplication.

Thank you!

@Lenny C

all the walls that are connected are considered as the same wall. If you have copy and paste, the wall is actually at the same location as the parents. You can see them when you move the pillars.

Hi @david.chan, i actually didnt use copy paste when building the walls in my model. However, after adding all the walls into my A*Navigation, the walls get duplicated. I found this out after i tried to shift the pillars around after adding in A*Navigation. May i know what is causing the duplication?

Your issue were not able duplicate, so I am not sure what has happened.

If I create the wall from the library, one node of wall is in my AStar list. If I copy and past, then I could see two nodes of walls in my list.

It could be unknowingly, you have copy and paste the wall.

Regards

David
