Virtual distance of NetworkNode

Hello.

Even if you set a virtual distance for a network node and let the operator walk that route, the distance does not change.

What do I need to enable virtual distance?

Thank you for your help.

Setting the virtual distance to a non-zero value should be all that's necessary.

Have you set the distance for both directions? The connection settings of a node only influence the connections from that node. For it to count for both, you have to set it in both connected nodes.

I have set all directions to non-zero, but they do not take effect.

Could you upload your model? Otherwise it's difficult to help further.

If the model is proprietary, you can either construct a small example model that shows the problem or ask a private question that will only be visible to FlexSim US staff.

I set the virtual distance first and it worked. There seems to be a problem with the procedure. Thank you for your help.
