Tagged resource: invalid down cast

In the Tagged Resource pickoption, the Team parameter can be used to reference a dispatcher:

1689927475608.png

However this throws an exception:

FlexScript exception: Invalid down cast. Object is not an instance of the target type. at MODEL:/Queue1>variables/transportdispatcher

See attached example: Tagged resource invalid down cast.fsm.

Under the hood, the code uses the TaskExecuter class, but the dispatcher is not an instance of that class.

Could you please fix that bug ?

I've been able to duplicate it in every version of Flexsim I've tried! I'll send it to dev as a bug

Thanks @Julie Weller. My colleague @Allister Wilson already reported the same bug by email to [email protected] in May 2021. @Jordan Johnson could you please increase the priority of fixing this bug ?

@Jordan Johnson when is this bug going to be fixed ?

Once again a user reported to me yesterday that he tried to use the Tagged Resource pickoption but it still throws the same exception as reported by Allister in May 2021 to [email protected], and as reported once again in the post above in July 2023.

I tried in 24.0.2 and even in 24.1.0 beta released yesterday, it still throws the same exception.
