Problem with the "has space" function for a rack with pallets with 8 boxes

Hi,

I'm trying to put pallets (combined with 8 boxes) in a rack. I'm using the "first Slot with Space" slot assignment strategy.

It's working with the default size of the pallet (125x125). I only have one pallet per slot :

But it's not working if I change the size of the pallet (160x160) (and the size of the slots of the rack). I have too many pallets in a slot :

Am I doing something wrong ? I don't understand what is the difference between those 2 situations.

If you change the size of the Rack's bay width to the same width of the pallet (1.25) then you will get one Pallet per slot.

You can also change this condition to have any size of rack with just 1 pallet per bay. If you have more than 1 pallet per bay use "slot.slotItems.length < #", with changing the # to +1 of your needed quantity.
