Does Flexsim allow real time interactive simulation?

is it possible to develop an external life feed that interacts with the DES model. The end result can be a DES flexSim model that can be updated live by external single that simulate for example machines on the production line breaking down, the 3D model will update and show the blockage.

Yes, FlexSim can interact with external data using sockets, files, etc. So if you develop a live feed that using sockets, files, databases, etc, then you can make a FlexSim model that responds to that feed.

Hi @Asif A,

Check out this answer by Ben Wilson. I think it should point you in the right direction.
