Thank you in advance for your answers.

While this is possible, it might be better to avoid it if you can because it can become problematic. If you'd like to upload an example of what you're trying to model, we could try and find a solution for you.

Excuse me, I build the new model by the same way as your example. I just unload the queue to the model(), and do not set the location, because it's not important to me now.

My problem is if I stop the model during transportation or unload the queue to other place, and then, reset the model. The queue would not back to original position, it's still at the unload position or on the people's subnode, I can't solve the problem.

Really need everyone's help, thank you.

@BING SYUAN L,

A good practice on the Answers site is to post a new question with a link to this old question. Old posts are rarely reviewed and your comment may not get seen.

Hi! @Cyrine S

If you use PF, it will be easy. You can get the Object from "Assign Event Object to" in Source Activity, then load and unload the Queue as other item. Remember that You should unload the Queue to "model()"

and set the position or the queue will location in(0,0,0)

I attach a sample and may it helps~

Thanks for you answer. But these is an error in your example model. It keeps telling me that " An invalid task has been encountered" each time I run the model..

Hi @Cyrine S,

Change out the "Load" activity for a "Move Object" activity and it should work.
