Plane disappears during model run

Hi there,

During my model run i increase the size of a plane with a basic fixed resource inside.

It all works fine and then every now and then the plane disappears completely and has a X, Y and Z location of -1.#R.

Does anyone know why that will happen? Below is a screen shot of the shapes location details

Software Version:

FlexSim 17.1.4

can you post the code of the

Vec3.setSize

command line. Do you parse integer, double or variants into the method for the components?

Hi Jorg,

Here is the code i use to increase the size of the plane in the x direction.

I parse a double value.

Object current = param(1);
treenode activity = param(2);
Token token = param(3);
treenode processFlow = ownerobject(activity);


Object obj = current.up;  // This is a reference to the plane that the BasicFR sits on
Vec3 referencePosition = Vec3(0, 0, 0); 
Vec3 prevLoc = obj.getLocation(referencePosition);
obj.setSize(obj.size.x + token.Advance_Meters, 6, 1); // token.Advance_Meters is a double 
obj.setLocation(prevLoc, referencePosition);

Maybe the error is associated with this question. If the problem still exists, you can parse only numbers in the method setSize of type: double, not a combination of integers and doubles.

You need to upload your model if you would receive a good answer for it.
