@laijunyi1996,

I'm not understanding what you are asking. Can you be a little more specific on what you need to happen in the model? The more information, the better.

Thanks.

when Operator1 put the boxes into queue2, I want driver1 and driver2 to take these boxes into branch1 and branch2,(you can connect travel_to_rest and event_triggered_source in the ProcessFlow to see what I want to achieve) ,but finally by the auto trigger ,without connection.

I hope my model works like this

queue1: inventory

queue2: waiting line

branch: generate demand（random number of box）

first, operator1 take 10 groups of boxes from queue1 into queue2, then flexsim send the demand quantities of each branch to python , then python calculate the best transport route (VRP problem), the drivers transport box along given route.

so I want to achieve that when Operator1 take the box into queue2, drivers can come up and load the box automatically , and when drivers arrive the branch, they can unload the box automatically.

@laijunyi1996

First You have to create the DLL in Python containing the algorithm. If you have that you can call those functions from FlexSim. There are 2 ways to create a DLL. One is the (slightly older) DLL Maker The other option is using the module SDK
