I have three process A,B,C, each only have one machine, and the process flow would be A->B->C->B->Queue, I would like to define that C input must already finished A and Queue only can accept that finished C, B is restricted resource(but no need any constraint, first available), how can I setting the A,B,C, if this need process flow ? or Custom code to process it, need support, thanks!

Set a label value on creation that will be evaluated in Send to Port in Processor B. Matching with your conditions: items leave to output port number 2 directly others are sent to output port number one. In a trigger in Processor C you set this label value to be able to be sent to output port number 2 in processor B later.
In a Case, where you are not allowed to change first available Send To Port option, you have to create a scenario that restrict access to available input ports. You can do this by closing the input of objects. If an item must enter other_ABCB_Process then you close the input After_first_B if an item enters process B by input port number. You can do this in triggers or upon an event called On Entry of processor B.
Conditions are involving a logical comparison of equality by == .
In a trigger of OnEntry an involved port number is declared by a local variable called port. If you want to get reference of an Object you use a sampler tool in the source code window looking like an eye dropper.
closing and opening of an input is a method of Object Flexscript class API.
if you write source code in a trigger please look for structures in the library tool panel, which you can double click or drag into your code.
