distancetotravel() improvement

Hello,

Hope the command "distancetotravel()" will be better in future version.

In the model you can find 3 problems:

1. Result is not correct after AGV passed the destination.

2. Result is not correct on arriving destination (should be zero).

3. Result is not correct on calculating distance between AGVs.

Software Version:

FlexSim 19.1.1

agv distancetotravel

Perhaps you can post an idea pointing out which features do you like inside an distance to travel command for the AGV module.

Actually this is a request from our client, they would like to develop algorithm that optimize AGV dispatching. So they need the information of every distance between AGVs.
