Hi,

After an Operator loads the first item from the queue, other items in the queue move like stuffing it inside.

I wold like to keep other items from moving as following figure.

Is it possible? What should I do?

Thanks in advance.

Use floor storage instead of a queue.

Or you can try setting the stacking method on the queue to 'Do Nothing' and then using your own packing method on entry.

Here's an example that uses a standard pack method on the queue entry and so doesn't keep a track of empty spaces.
