Hi community,
today I discovered that with a very specific configuration the conveyors doens't update its statistics. I attach the model to reproduce the issue (test.fsm).
The model is very easy:
- 1 source generates 1 extra size item;
- 1 conveyor long enough for the extra item;
- 1 conveyor shorter than the item;
- 1 sink;
You can note that the longer conveyor updates the input/output statistics, the shorter one no.
I suppose that the conveyor system computes the item position based on the item center. Then in my case the center doesn't reach the shorter conveyor because the item reaches the ExitTransfer before.
I don't know if it is a bug or the conveyor works as designed. I open the discussion (dev team is involved too @Phil BoBo , @Jordan Johnson , @anthony.johnson ).
PS: I have already found a workaround and I place a photoeye to catch the item.
