How to create inter-arrival time for the transporter?

Hi,

I would like to make my transporter to come to the queue at a certain timing using the statistical distribution that I have gathered. May I know how can I do so?

Thank you.

An event driven simulation works a bit different. A transporter is an object that supports the material flow. The transporter isn't the cause of the material flow. If you need a transporter at a certain time at a defined position you have to create an event that need the transporter at the location. You have to calculate the amount of time the transporter travels to the location. Then you can iniate the event that causes the travel to the location in the past.
