As you can see in below image even though I fixed Queue Capacity as 2, it is accepting more than 2.
I am attaching the model for reference.
Even though Queue Capacity is fixed, the model is exceeding the limit
FlexSim 20.0.3
@joey That is because process flow does not take that limit into account if you load directly into the queue. You will ave to check if you exceed the limit in process flow. You can use the .subnodes and .length commands to get the amount of items in the queue, and decide whether to go drop off based on that.
@Braydn T It would be much more intuitive, more consistent with other parts of FlexSim, and extremely useful at integrating process flow with 3d modeling, if process flow did check the capacity and would hold the token if the queue capacity would be exceeded. Ideally this would also have a time out function as well.
