Token Priority Between two events

Hi~ I want to make a vehicle sharing system which has three stations, each station has four vehicles but only one station has eight vehicles and this station is called "station 3". I also want to create a rule that a station's number of vehicle is more than 6 then I will transport one of this station's vehicle to another station to ensure the demand of another station can be satisfied. But I have a problem is that Token's Priority between "Transport customer" and "Transport extra vehicle to another station". System should satisfy customer first, but my system sometimes transport vehicle first. These two pictures is my system's two main event. And here is my flexsim file.shared-vehicle-system.fsm

Thanks~

One of your lists is using an invalid query. To set a priority in your process flow to make it customer first is about how you set up your system to check for customer needs first. if you have an event firing to move a car over to another spot, have a decision activity to check if customers need to be satisfied, and if there are none, then continue moving the car to that destination. Sometimes what is happening as well is the command is sent for the car to travel to another queue before a customer appears, and then a customer appears while it is in transit.
