How do I plot my operators' average speed in a graph?

I have operators changing their max speed based on which coloured plane have to pass through. These planes also change colours based on the time in the simulation.

How do I collect data of my operators' max speeds throughout the simulation?

FlexSim 23.1.3

The question title asks for average but then you ask about the maximum speed - which is it?

The average 'Max Speed' in the properties. Do let me know if there is a different term to describe this. Thank you.

You can find the average speed using the distance travelled/time travelling. The total travel distance is :

taskExecuter.stats.totalTravelDistance

You can also pin the statistics to a dashboard:

Then you can install the chart you chose an either edit the stats collector or use a calculated table to transform the stats_collector's data.

A good template to track the maximum speed might be the State Gantt collector. (Install the chart to see the statistics collector behind it.) Instead of the state it would record the maximum speed. The proximity trigger of the agent system could send a message to the ship whose max. speed was changed which the collector can then react to and update the data. (The OnStateChange event from the State Gantt collector would be replaced with OnMessage.)

With this data of how long each ship was assigned which max. speed, you can use a Calculated Table to compute the average.

Thank you. This works for me
