I want to set different travel networks between two model layouts (1 and 3 where stations positions have been exchanged) to optimize performance by using design variable types, but I can not figure out how to do it, nodes connections keep the same in both (see connection between nodes n1 and ne4).
It seems to be that only one network has to be shared in both layouts. Do you know any way to set different ones ?
MODELO EXPERIMENTACION 20-2 (1).fsm
May anyone help me? Thanks
I think you are correct in that one network has to be shared throughout the entire model. I don't know of a way to add more than one separate travel network.
As I look at your model, there are a few Network Nodes that do not have connections to the main network, which means they will be inaccessible to operators in the model. Was this intentional?
No, I deleted some of them while trying to figure out how to accomplish it, but the transporter will be moving all around by the travel network

Firstly, notwithstanding management in layout versions, you can have multiple simple travel networks that are not connected - you just need to assign the traveller to the relevant network. You could not in the past have multiple unconnected AGV networks using the standard AGV process flow template without some additional work.
Now for your layout alternatives: It looks like it's the position of the stations and their assignment to network positions that what you want to change rather than the travel network itself.
To make this happen when you change layouts would require adding code to the ModelLayouts>update flexscript which would be best done in a module which you would then need to maintain between versions.
Perhaps we should ask that Station to NetworkNode relationships are added to the ModelLayout manager, or add an OnLayoutChange event trigger to allow users to handle this and other changes. At the moment the layout just manages spatial information.
