How to record the number of times TaskExecuter is transported
There are two things I want to do.
Write the number of items transported by TaskExecuter to the global table.
Write the number of round trips for transportation by TaskExecuter to the global table.
The number of shipped items could be created by writing to the global table with the On UnLoad trigger.
But which trigger should I use for the number of transports?
Or is it not possible to count the number of transports with a trigger?
Hi anonymous user, was Jörg Vogel's answer helpful? If so, please click the red "Accept" button at the bottom of their answer. Or if you still have questions, add a comment and we'll continue the conversation.

If you know, the transporter gets empty at every unload station, you can check his content by current.subnodes.length as a condition to be empty.
Or you send a delayed message to himself. OnMessage you check his current state. If he is traveling again, then the past unload counts as a trip.
I have tried using "current.subnodes.length".
But there was a problem.
What i want to do is,
Write the number of round trips for transportation by TaskExecuter to the global table.
However, in the "Write to Global Table" menu, Unable to enter the condition "current.subnodes.length".
There are only input fields for Row, Column, and Value.
if(current.subnodes.length == 1) // item is counted as in operator
Table("mytable").cell(1,1).value += 1;
Thank you for presenting the script.
In other words
Does that mean that the FlexSim menu doesn't have the ability to achieve this goal?
No, there is not a conditional table cell input template. FlexSim Developers tested in the past different graphical supported programming techniques. Currently their favorite is process flow.
