Question about time vs. census graph

[ FlexSim 22.2.4 ]

Can you please help me with the following: I have a time vs. census graph, but as the simulation goes from one day to the next, the graph continues onto the next day. How can I make the graph only consider the hours of the day from 12 am to 12 pm and start summing without taking the days into account? I'm using the information from the LocationCensusHistory table.

For that you have to build a statistics collector that meaures the census in a fixed interval in order to sum up the data for those points in time over multiple days.

Otherwise some data points belong to day A and others to day B and so on.

censusByTimeOfDay_fm.fsm

(I tried to have the time be in datetime format but the graph then exhibits a weird behaviour where the x-axis continues to extend despite no new time values being added to the table. It seems to be bound to the elapsed model time, rather than the data in the table. So I changed to the model time.)

Hello,

How do you draw the door structure? Did you use any external software or in Flexsim? Thanks.
