Workers unload on the other side of the Conveyor

When the worker unloads the goods to the EntryTransfer, he runs to the other side of the conveyor, as shown in video 1. How can I adjust it back?

I tried to recreate the EntryTransfers, it still doesn't work.

In another test, the worker did not run to the other side of the conveyor line, as shown in video 2.

In the first it looks like you are using the A* navigator. When offset travelling for a load/unload task, the TE will move to the cell corresponding to the pick/drop location of the item (determined by item center).

The conveyor is placed such that its width covers two cells in about a 60/40 ratio. The cell where the item is placed thus ends up being "on the other side" of the conveyor.

A solution would be to simply block those cells with a barrier.
