the AGV runs backward

In the AGV simulation model I created, the AGV runs backward in the second transport.


Why is this happening?

How should I set it to drive forward?

AGVs will change their travel orientation if the change in travel direction is larger than the 'Turn Around Threshold' set in the AGV Network Properties.

This value can't be set larger than 180°, so an AGV that reverses its direction on a path will always change its orientation.

If you want it to continue driving forwards, you could implement a small loop for it to turn around.
