Sources to network node

Hi all, may I ask any reason why there is no source coming out if I add a network node between source and queue? What should I do to regulate the moving path from sources?

Apart from using conveyors(https://answers.flexsim.com/questions/58672/how-to-get-items-flow-into-different-processors.html), any other tool could help to equally distribute Man from source to queue? Thank you very much for answering.

Hey, in absence of an example model I hope I understood your problem. The Networknode Object is not a Fixed Resource and thatswhy does not support standard material flow features.

Hi @Zac Lui, as mentioned above the NN is not a Fixed Resource. You also have to do an A Connection to the Object the "Item" has to be sent through. So the Connection with NN is in addition to the standard connections.

@sebastian.hemmann thank you very much for your answering. I have one more question would like to ask you, how can the source distribute to queue equally apart from using conveyors? If this is the only way, how can I hide the conveyors? Thank you again.

Hi, I think I´m lost in your english a bit. You are looking for a conveyor that is acting like a queue? Or is it more that you want to build a waiting line? Maybe you can add pictures or models that show what you want?

Change the Network View Mode from "Show All" to "Edges" or "None."

The node you click on will be visible regardless of the setting, so you can add a node away from the model if you don't want to see it.
