How to make AGV schedule more finely and dynamic?

Hi, here is the scenario：When an AGV gets a task(go somewhere and do loading/unloading stuff), we shall know the whole set of controll points which the AGV will request and allocate along its travelling.So the first question is how to get this set of controll points ahead?

Then, supposely we have got this set,like [cp1,cp2,cp3,cp4,cp5,cp6,cp7,,,]. I want to dispatch two or three cps at a time to the AGV along its moving, if it successfully allocate them all, then it will continue the moving, otherwise it will stop.It's like there is a moving controll area for the AGV. The reason i hope to implement this is that in the real world, AGV suppliers are doing their schedule in this way.So the second question is how to implement this kind of schedule?

You build a model, you run a model, you record data along a way for a single AGV in your model for every route. You implement a new logic, which let travel your AGV based on recorded data only for two control points. Or you build a new AGV module navigator object in the SDK.

The AGV has a class property allocationPoints (v22.2 on) containing the as yet unallocated allocation points. Please also refer to the AGV customization Delegate.
