How do I make TaskExecuter(AGV) depart as soon as unload is completed?

Hi, I am brand new to FlexSim and using the trial version so limited to 30 objects. I have 5 AGVs (taskexecuters) successfully picking and then dropping a load. The problem is that once the load is unloaded, the AGV waits at the unload station until the next AGV is loaded. I need it to depart as soon as it is unloaded. I'm hoping for a simple simple solution. Thank you!

FlexSim_AGV.fsm

Software Version:

FlexSim 20.2.3

flexsim 20.2.3 agv return when unload is complete ho to make taskexecuter depart immediately new to flexsim taskexecuter trigger

flexsim-agv.fsm (35.6 KiB)

Try using the transporter trigger OnResourceAvailable - then select the pick option to travel somewhere - home location, object or something else.

I think there is a picklist property in On Unload event trigger to send the Taskexecuter to a different object.
