How to get the total TravelEmpty distance of the Transporter ?

Hello,

Is there any option to get the total TravelEmpty distance of the transporter in the simulation model (like the Total Travel distance)?

I have found out that I can get the percent of the time of this state but the speed of my transporter isn't constant. In that case I can't use the proportion between the TravelLoaded and TravelEmpty to get the distance in each state.

Software Version:

FlexSim 19.1.0

Take a look at this model, the total travel distance an operator travels is calculated before he actually makes the trip. This model uses processflow and triggers that fire when the operator is going to travel empty. It sets a label on the operator after it does some simple calculations.

That's strange, maybe I saved it wrong, I saved the model again in version 19.1, see if this works. Processflow comes with the program automatically.
