How to run an appointed random stream in model?

[ FlexSim 20.1.3 ]

When I ran the Experiment, I found an incorrect result because there are some bugs in my model. I can get some information through result’s “Console Output”, but it is not enough for me. How can I run this appointed random stream in model for debugging purpose? Thanks in advance.

You choose the reset scenario on the first tab (Scenarios) of the experimenter:

and you choose the specific replication you want to repeat on the last tab (Advanced):

Is it possible to run this random stream in model, not in Experimenter? I want to debug it in process flow.

@Lin Ray

Yes, that's what this is for. After you choose the reset scenario and replication in the Experimenter window then you reset your model and run it (not the experiment). Your model will now be using the same random number streams as that specific replication from the experiment.
