In the AGV Network Properties of FlexSim 2021 update2
Added "Multiply By Custom Path Cost" option.
Is there any sample data that makes effective use of this function?
I want to learn this feature.

Attached is a really simple test model that demonstrates using a custom path cost.
Thank you for sending the test model.
It was very useful for learning.
I have one question.
I also prepared RouteCost on the other straight line (Path15), set a value lower than RouteCost of Path3, and checked the operation.
However, the AGV has gone through the Path3 route.
So, after opening the AGV Network Properties and selecting the "Apply" button, when I checked the operation, it took the route of Path15.
Simply rewriting the label value in this way will not reflect the settings, and will not be reflected unless you press the "Apply" button in the AGV Network Properties every time. Is this such a mechanism?
I can't replicate the issue you are describing. Adding a RouteCost label of 0.05 to Path15 causes the AGV to take that path without needing to do anything else.
Please post more specific replication steps with expected results and actual results.
