Hi Logvykat Use the following two codes in the queue atom: trigger on entry: do( closeoutput(c), if( content(c) = att([Capacity],c), do( closeinput(c), openoutput(c) ) ) ) trigger on exit: if( content(c) = 0, do( openinput(c) ) ) Now when the max capacity is reached, the input is closed, and output ...

Dear Nienke, Thank you for your thoughts. I have been working on the topic and finally managed to work my way around using codes in the load and unload fields of the Adv transporter: starttime: when a product is loaded, the startime is the moment of loading + the total loading time needed to load th...

Hi, I managed to do 1 and 2, but I don't know how to perform 3 and 4. Is there some some way to calculate the cycletime of a truck for a delivery-run, and the nodes where the truck has to unload within this run? A general explanation of where I have to connect a measurement variable to would allread...

Dear members, I have made a model that uses trucks (advanced transporters) to deliver products to customers, but now want to run experiments to measure the performance of my trucks. I found in the Help-section that the truck has several statuses (Idle, down, etc), but it is not given how to retrieve...

Hi Marlies,

That is indeed the problem here,
I completely overlooked that box.

Thank you for the quick reply.

Hi all. I have a problem with using the availability control in combination with the openinput/closeinput scripts. I want to close the inputchannel of atom 'X' in the beginning of a simulation run, and use the code closeinput(atombyname([X],model) in the Initialize atom. This works fine when I run t...

Hi Marlies,

This is exactly what I need, Thank you!
I came up with sort of the same code, but did not know the unload time is always determined by the last value in the unload code.

Regards,
René

Hi Manuel, Thank you for your quick replies, For the first question I have done sort of the same now, I labeled the products with label([dest],i)= 'number', and send the adv-transporter by this atom label. The second solution however seems a bit inefficient. I prefer using only 1 atom per unload loc...

Hi All, I have some problems with the unloading times: 1. I want to have different unloading times for different locations. The unloadtime is linked to the location where the transporter stops for unloading (i.e. by atom-name), so I need to reference to the next atom where the atoms in the conveyor ...

Hi Marlies, Thank you for the edited model and clear explanations of the code content. To inform you, The trucksize 27 is dependent on sum of the label 'quantity' within a batch, i.e. Batch 1: order 1 = quantity = 5 order 2 = 3 order 4 = 6 ... .. . Total = 28 But I managed to implement it myself, so...
