I would like a task executer to be able to pass through another task executer stopped ahead of it on an AGV network. Is this possible?
Can task executers pass through each other on an AGV network?

To do this, you have to allow other AGVs to allocate the control point the idle AGV is currently occupying. The easiest way would be to increase the maximum number of allowed allocations for the control points.
If that is not feasible in your model, you could also try to "move" idle AGVs to another dummy control point, to free up the one in the actual network.
The timing of doing this will be tricky to get right when using a dispatcher, so I would only use this approach when the AGVs are controlled by a process flow. Because then you can be sure that the AGV can be moved back to its actual control point before it starts a new task.
