Chart delay table times

I have 6 agv's in system. There are added delays to simulate cross traffic based on a delay table. All I want to do is chart at what time they are being triggered at so I can make sure the logic is correct. (No training in flexsim what so ever, so keep answers in lay man terms please). Multiple delay points exists in system.

Software Version:

FlexSim 17.2.3

I'm not sure I completely understand what the "delay points" are. Are they waypoints on your AGV network? If so you could write a script to record the times the AGV arrives at the waypoint and save it to a TrackedVariable in order to chart it on your dashboard. Is this along the lines of what you're thinking?

Yes, the proper term I guess is WayPoint. AGV stop / yields to other traffic. I want to record and chart not the AGV but want to record each time a stop is issued at a waypoint. My waypoints for example happen at 5,25,45,65,....so on (every twenty minutes) I just want to plot that so I can show customer graphically all the way points triggering.

Is this the same model we worked on over the phone? If so, you could just have a Custom Code activity after each delay/stop point in your Process flow (if I remember correctly, I think that's when it's stopping the agvs right?) Then record the current Model Time and save it to a table. Would that work for this situation?
