How to identify if the path is already busy and make the agv use another way?

duvida.fsm

I have a problem, I don't intend to use the pre-configured avg process flow as it was making other points in the simulation difficult, but I need help.

at some point in my simulation, several trucks will return to the distribution point and park in a group of spaces, but I can't create the logic that identifies when that control point is occupied.


how can I do this?

It would be an option to use the control points connected to the queue as a resource. The agvs acquire and one and then travel to those specific points, rather than the queue in general.

This would be the simplest solution I can think of right now.

I created two resolution options for your question:

- The first option would be to control the control points using lists. This way, you can even use selection criteria to choose the best control point. I used a choice criterion based on the shortest distance.

- The second option would be through Processflow resources, as mentioned earlier.

By adding control points to a list, various information is automatically collected, such as the availability of the control point and the distance traveled to it. Enabling control point selection based on different criteria. In the example shown, the AGVs went to the nearest cp.
