Curved conveyor segments & A*

Do curved conveyors not act as barriers with A* Navigator? In the attached model, I have indicated two curved segments as barriers but they are not highlighted as blue when turning on visuals in A* and the operator walks right through the segments. The operator avoids the straight conveyors.

They certainly do. See the attached model for an example. curvedconveyorastar.fsm

The operator in your model isn't attached to the A* Navigator and is ignoring all barriers.

Thanks Matt. I know the operator was attached at one time; not sure what happened, but I overlooked that aspect wen investigating. The operator appeared to avoid the machines on the return, but not going to packing. Also, I didn't see the curved conveyors colored blue so thought that may be the problem. Anyway, thanks again - blush!
