How to make a token wait for a sibling token?

I have a token that needs to go to a repeating activity1 x number of times but after the first time it goes trough the activity1, concurrently it needs to start other activities that are independent from the activity1 (Please see attached example model). After the token has completed repeating activity1 x amount of times now it needs to wait for the separate activities to be completed before it can continue. How can I set the "wait for event" to match the sibling tokens and only release those tokens instead of releasing all of them? wait-for-sibling-token-example.fsm

First, on the Create Token activity, assign a label called sibling to the created token that points back to the original token that created it. Then, in the wait for event, match the involved OnEntry event's "Token" value with the token's sibling label.

thank you for the response, I can't open the file you sent. I'm guessing it's because it was saved for the 17 Version? I have Flexsim 16.2, when I open it it's completely blank
