Process flow bug for Event-Triggered Source with group object

In 17.1 it appears that there is a bug if you have an event-triggered source (or wait for event) where the object is a group. This worked in 17.0, and can be very useful. I have attached a model where the error messages can be observed. Thanks.grouponeventbug.fsm

So I recreated the issue again, yes it seems that when you select a group of objects as your triggering object on an Event Triggered Source, it throws errors. @phil.bobo @Matt Long @anthony.johnson

This issue has been pointed out by a few users now. We've fixed it on our end for the 17.1.1 bug fix release. You should still be able to set the node in the tree as a workaround though. I'll post more information about how to do that in a second.

We'll have a fix out for this soon, but, for now, the easiest thing to do is to set your Group object node in the tree to have Object data. You can do this by opening the tree, finding the node, and then pressing the "O" key.
