How to let AGV follow the certain path?

Hello, I'm a beginner of flexsim , currently i need to change my model to the Transfer version, but I encounter a problem. How can I let AGVs follow the certain path by using only one Dispatcher ? I have attach an illustration.The picture show the path and AGVs correspond to three colors respectively, How do let AGV follow the certain path?

Thanks

@Wang K

I think you may be better off using process flow to program each individual task sequence that is causing you issues.

Process Flow Tutorials

You will assign each task executor to an individual resource, and then create individual instances of Process Flow with event triggered sources (most likely on the queues), and then have the Task Executor follow its individual tasks, like loading from the queue, travelling down the path, and then dropping off an object.

Process Flow is an extremely powerful tool, and using it in conjunction with your 3D model will allow you to make the least amount of changes to your model to get the changes that you want. AGVs pull work with the closest AGV being the one assigned, so if you override this with Process Flow, it will be much easier than trying to preempt it another way.

@Wang K

I answered another one of your questions about this model earlier. Do you still need help with this question?
