Zone Statistics Don't Work After Warmup Time

Zone Statistics Don't Work After Warmup.fsmI'm using the zone statistics chart template to view various statistics of different zones in my model. The zone charts of various types (table, bar, etc.) all work until the warmup time is reached. Once the model resets the statistics after the warmup time, the zone charts don't work anymore. I found a workaround by selecting the zone block in the process flow, expanding the statistics from quick properties, and pinning the statistics of interest to the dashboard. However, this workaround is more time-consuming than using the chart template option. If the zones work as intended when the warmup time ends, why does the chart template stop working? I've attached a simplified model where I recreated the problem.

This is a bug, thanks for reporting it with such a good test case. Another workaround for now open the properties for the zone chart, go to the Advanced tab, and click Install. After you confirm the install, you'll find a new Statistics Collector in the toolbox. If you double click that to open its properties, and go to the Row Options tab, you'll find an On Warmup option. If you set that value to Do Nothing, you'll find that the data survives the warmup time.
