Trouble accessing currentCP property for AGV object

I'm trying to access the current CP for my AGV but when I use the new dot syntax the result is always null. However it works when I use the deprecated commands.

What am I doing wrong that the dot syntax isn't working correctly?

I'm attaching a picture of the code here and will post a copy of my model privately.

The AGV data of an object is retrieved by using the following syntax:

AGV vAGV = AGV(token.resource);

You cannot cast a treenode or a Variant directly into an AGV. The AGV data is a separate node that holds data about the task executer in the AGV Network that is related to the task executer but on a different node. So the syntax is a little different.

You can find an example of this syntax at the top of Way Point triggers.

Hey @phil.bobo, Can this example be added to the documentation for AGVs? Ideally within the Static method, or in the description of the AGV Type.
