AGV will be congested.

You need to get the AGV out of the way. There are no more jobs for it since the combiner is about to get the last two parts delivered by the other AGVs and so it's not receiving other parts from the racks.

You could use some parking when idle. You could implement that yourseld using OnResourceAvailable trigger or you could add the standard AGV process flow template.

Another method would be to use a control area to detect that you have 3 AGVs at the combiner and push the first one out. In a process flow have the control area's on allocation event push the AGVs to a list and then when there are 3 pull the first AGV from the list and give it a travel task.
