I used a list and a process flow to control the truck and the timing of when the items are ready to be loaded on the truck.

The keywords are “coordinated tasksequence” or “synchronize activity”. Both taskexecuter travel to a location where they meet in the model. They wait through a synchronize task / activity. The crane unloads or moves the item to the model, The truck loads the item from the model. The truck must wait until the unload event of the crane has taken place.
