I have 2 queues and i want the transporter to pickup all the items in a single trip.
How can a transporter pickup 5 items per queue in the same trip?
FlexSim 18.2.0
Sure, here is the example. Hope it can help you visualize the problem
The Break To function needs a setup in the Transporter properties. Please open the Template editor. It is the first right icon next to function area. It shows a hand and a page.
The field Object Queueing TaskSequences is set to current. The tasksequences are queued in the dispatcher. You need to change this here. Press the small black down arrow, choose Connected Objects
current.inObjects[1]
If you use the Sampler instead you can choose directly the dispatcher in your model view and select the reference.
@Lucy
Attached is your model with the changes that I've made to it. To get it to do exactly as you described, I had to manually code the task sequences to do it. Most of the code is in Queue1 in the Use Transport field. The rest of the code is in the OnMessage triggers of each queue.
If you have any questions or problems, please ask. Take a look at the model. If it does not do what you are wanting it to do, please explain what needs to change.
Thanks.
