save output via custom code

Hi All,

I have connected my model to python and I want to get the result with different runs. So here In the attached model I'm trying to save the out put of each run in the statcol.csv file but always it gives me 0 for the column.

this is the out put of the python that connected to the flexsim and read the statcol.csv file. i tried to get 5 runs but it gives me 3 without any information and get stuck.

Operator tableRow EntryTime ExitTime

0 operator1 1.0 0.0 0.0

1 operator2 2.0 0.0 0.0

simulation elapsed time: 6.5s

Operator tableRow EntryTime ExitTime

0 operator1 1.0 0.0 0.0

1 operator2 2.0 0.0 0.0

simulation elapsed time: 5.78s

Operator tableRow EntryTime ExitTime

0 operator1 1.0 0.0 0.0

1 operator2 2.0 0.0 0.0

simulation elapsed time: 7.32s

Hey @MPeyman, I feel like you're not getting much data because you export the statistics collector table after .5 seconds of the model running.

Have you tried extending that time?

Dear @Kavika F , I remove the part of simulation close and add the code in On Stop. and it saved correctly. But the problem is that, when the simulation finished his work manually I have to stop the simulation. so it save the data and run again, since I defined to run it 5 times. But I don't want to manually stop, I would like automatically after finishing the process it get stop. How is it possible?

You can put your code in the 'On End of Replication' trigger of the experimenter and use that to run 5 replications.

dear @Jason Lightfoot , thanks for your command.

firstly where can I find "On End of Replication" because on Model trigger, I only have 4 options which is open, reset, start and end.

second: in my python code I sometime I run flexsim 5 time for the short run and sometime I run it 10 times that defines as a long run. So when the first run gets finish then it should save to the csv and the second run open automatically. but for now I have to stop manually.
