Stop AGV rotation

Hello,

is there a simple way to emulate unselecting the "Rotate while traveling" on a AGV network like it does using network nodes?

On AGV network the travelers rotate no matter if the box is selected on the AGV, and if I rotate the AGV through a trigger or processFlow it changes back to its position when it starts moving.

The only way we have come up with is putting a dummy AGV and on top of that an item that we rotate on a onDraw trigger of the AGV, but this is not a simple way of doing it and it makesit difficult to load an unload items into the other item.

Software Version:

FlexSim 19.1.0

This is part of the kinematics built into the AGVs, so no simple way of changing it's orientation while it's moving. You could build a custom subflow that handles the load and unload, but what you are doing already is what we suggest people to do.
