Change the name of the original machine

I use a For loop to execute the logic of copying the machine in OnModelReset, and directly change the name of the copied machine in the GlobalTable.

However, as mentioned earlier, I want the names of the original machine and the Queue to also change accordingly. The following error occurred while writing the code.

Thank you for your assistance.

Line 4 is missing a semicolon.

You declare the variable Obj, then proceed to use obj, which is only declared further down and thus not valid at that point in the code.

Hello @Felix Möhlmann , I apply a similar logic to regulate the Number of "Operators" and encounter these issue.

The copying logic functions, but the operators overlap and lack the spacing seen in the processor.

Additionally, the dashboard fails to display the copied operator names as the picture.

The position is overridden by the original operator's reset position. You can update it with either of the two expressions below.

The "Invalid ID" is caused by you using "switch_destroyonreset()". I believe this marks the object as 'non-persistent' and it doesn't possess an object id as a result (similar to a flow item). You can instead delete all but the first member of the group before creating new ones to achieve the same effect.

(As I have pointed out numerous times, the "Delete and Copy Group Members" option for a parameter in the parameter table contains a working example of how you can change the number of objects in a group)

@Felix Möhlmann I use while loop to remove Operator when the GroupMember>1, and it can work in first run, but in second run, it will continue to copy Operators, how can I make sure the number of Operators is what I need and show the Operator's name in dashboard, thank you
