You can set up motion paths that the robot has to follow when moving to another location. (Though this is probably only feasible if the robot only moves to a handful of discrete positions.)

Here's an example model that uses motion paths to have a robot lift an item above an obstacle.

RobotMotionPaths.fsm

Otherwise you could try to build custom task sequences that consist of multiple travel tasks in a row to force the robot to take a longer path.
