Hi,
Is there a way i could change the axis in which the conveyor conveys item on a decision point or a station event for instance ? I want to simulate a real situation of a two-axis conveyor (with a time for direction axis change)
Thanks !

I would change the entry orientation in an Entry Transfer. Unfortunately the number values are missing in the reference manual.

You find them as macros in Flexscript class reference for the orientation property.
In earlier Versions the entry orientation was a set of positive or negative characters specifying the orientation. Please look at the section Property Window and Types for comparison:
https://docs.flexsim.com/en/20.0/Reference/3DObjects/Conveyors/EntryTransfers/
In addition it is probably a combination of conveyor item orientation setting the coordinates of travel and a translate item movement to get the item near to an exit transfer.
Hi @Abdelhak SAM, you can add a trigger to a decision point or station that allows you to translate / rotate the item over a specified distance or time.
