I'm trying to make a path intersection accesible from both paths for a single CP. can this be done?

Hey @Boris M6, what you're describing is the default behavior for Control Points (CPs). If you look at the CP's tree, you'll see it has a variable "path" that contains all the paths that CP is associated with. Below I have a gif showing those paths updating as you move the CP from a single path to an intersection of paths (and back again).

The paths themselves have something similar, keeping track of all the CPs on them (referred to as "pathPoints" in the tree):

If you're referring to a transfer in which an AGV can move onto another path, then you probably want the "Create Transfers at Crossings" option checked in the AGV Network Properties > General tab.

You'll know you've done it right when a thin X appears at the intersection:
