Flowitems pull items from conveyor

Hello,

I am working on a baggage handling system, and currently, I am struggling to find how a passenger can take baggage off a conveyor, I have attached 2 models, the first one works as I want, passengers pull bags off the conveyor, and when I continued working on it and added 4 more conveyers and more entrance gates, it stopped working as before, passengers don't pull their luggage off the conveyor.

In the simulation, it creates photoeyes that the bags will go over then it triggers a pull action that the passenger flow item will do. what is causing the problem seems to be the location of one or two photoeyes only, their creation of the location in not right, and that leads to not all of the passengers process flow pulling the bags from the conveyor.


can you help me with a solution that will make the passenger pull the luggage off the conveyor, and make the (pull bags) work in the second attached model.

Your model isn't repeatable and has many exceptions - the first thing would be to get it repeating so that the exceptions happen at the same time every run and then they can be debugged. Once they're eliminated the cause of your issue, if it still persists, can be investigated.
