Only pull when number of resources is >= 3

I have 6 cube objects. The arriving tokens may only pull a cube if the number of available cubes is at least 3.

Therefore at most 4 cubes may be occupied at any given moment.

However I have a problem whenever 4 cubes are occupied while having two backorders.

When a cube is pushed back onto the list, both backorders are fulfilled such that 5 cubes are now occupied. The problem is that both backorders are fulfilled at the exact same simulation time stamp and I can't seem to resolve this.

test_model.fsm

Software Version:

FlexSim 21.0.0

flexsim 21.0.0 global list backorder

test-model.fsm (32.2 KiB)

When testing it with FlexSim 21.0.3, I am not able to replicate the problem. It seems to function exactly as expected.

@Lars Christian J2

I've just upgraded to 21.0.3 and, yes, the problem is now gone.
