Error in placing items in rack

I have setup with two racks facing each other in each aisle. When I try to place an item in the rack it gets placed in bay 6, rack 55 when it is supposed to go to bay 12. I have changed bay progression and stride but did not help. When I change the bay progression on Rack 55 forklift travels to incorrect aisle to store the object.


I think the bay is correct. I did not realize the orientation. The problem is the fork lift is using wrong aisle to place object. Highlighted is the pick face it should use but for some reason forklift is using aisle next to it to place items.

There exists an example in manual warehouse. One side of an aisle slots numbers are even, the other side uneven in slot progression. And there is the warehouse demo model.

I checked that and had the racks setup accordingly. But the forklift somehow is going to the wrong aisle to place.

I can’t see it in the picture. Is there an object connection from a network node in the aisle to a rack object, which you want to load or unload from its backside?

It gets placed in bay 12 and uses the correct aisle.

It is going to bay 12, which is fine. It is going to top rack from the bottom aisle.

When i set the transporter to not use travel offsets it works correctly. When I set it to use navigator for offset travel it messes up

Don't use the navigator for offset travel.
