Aisle with one traveler limit

Hi, I am trying to simulate a two-way aisle where it is only wide enough to allow 1 traveler passing through at a given time. On the event of collision, the other traveler should give way and head to the temporary parking mark in orange to allow the other AGV to pass through. Can you advise the best way to do this?

At the moment I am experimenting with using network nodes nodes as AGV network has significant difficulties in 2 way network and Astar navigation does not have control area.

I think an AGV network would be your best bet for this. You can react to the AGV failing to allocate a control area and redirect it to one of the parking spots.

A similar logic might be possible with network nodes, but you would have to check whether a TE "failed" to enter a traffic control area manually. There is a trigger when a request is made, but not if a request fails as far as I know.
