How to set the people state in a custom code?

How to set the people state in a custom code the same way we set the default state profile?

In the model attached, for exemple, the activity "time in State_X" is a certain activity like wait in a pull from list.

In the graph below, I would like to see
- idle =3s
- State_X = 4s
- InTransit...
- State_Y = 5s

Thanks in advance

Use a code snippet like this:

Object person = token.Person;
person.stats.state("HC States").valueString = "State_X";

setpeoplestate.fsm

You can use

token.Person.as(Object).stats.state("HC States").value = "State_X";

in your custom code.

Note that the people activities put the person in their previous state when they finish. In this case, that means that instead of going back to idle, they will go back to State_X.

Thanks ! Indeed, it's a problem.

I notice another problem: During the animations "installation on the table" or "leaving the examination table" which are due to the activity "walk", the state HC is idle. It is false in my opinion. The patient is handling himself. He's active. This state should be in "InTransit" not idle state.

If you're concerned about those state times you can edit the enter/exit instructions of the location to set the person's state during the animations. However, if you use more realistic processing times (like 15 minutes not 4 seconds) and travel distances I think you'll see that the few seconds it takes a person to sit down and stand up will be negligible.

thanks for your answer. Sure. I clearly agree with you. I was just understanding the mechanism and I did not understand where this idle time came from. Thanks again.
