What´s wrong with the simple, little model attached.
All conveyors are non-accumulating and a palette can go further if the next segment is free (see "Entry Space" on propertie panel). All conveyors have different geometrie but same speed. First the model run´s good but suddenly a paletet on the yellow conveyor stops and not go further any more. Can anybody explain me what the problem is?
This looks like it could be a bug. It has to do with the Entry Length on the conveyor after the yellow one. You have it set to 1.7, and so, because when an item is stopped on that conveyor and another one is stopped on the yellow one, it stops because it can't fit within the Entry Length, and for whatever reason, after the one after the yellow conveyor clears, that "cleared" message isn't getting through to the yellow conveyor. (The developers I believe are already aware of this bug, but I'll let
Anyway, the fix or workaround for now is to either extend that conveyor a little, or reduce the entry length amount to 0, that should keep it from getting stuck.
new update today Version 17.1.5 - but the problem´s still the same!
