Problem with model with AGV, allocated idle, blocked

I am having a problem with my model.
I have about 41 AGVs in the model.
As I add one more AGV, making it 42, the AGV seems to stop working around 1000 seconds into the model.
The AGV on the picture shows the state 'allocated idle' blocking other AGVs.
Any help would be thankful.

After the task executer is done with the first task, it starts to travel back to it's home location. At the point in your screenshot a token acquires the task executer and creates a preempting task sequence, stopping the travel to the home location. Afterwards the token has to wait to acquire a destination, so the task executer is idle until that time.

Either make the task sequence non-preempting or acquire a destination first, before creating the task sequence.
