Bug in source with arrival schedule

When using a Source in 3D with an Arrival Schedule and repeat , it does not work correctly. On repeat, it does not consider the time for the first event. It works correctly if using the same functionality in Process Flow.

 

Please note that is NOT possible to upload a fsm file.

Hello @lars_jacobsen_ScandiSim,

This is documented in the manual and is not viewed as a bug.

"If the source is set to repeat the schedule, then it will immediately loop back on the first arrival after the last arrival, causing the first entry's arrival to happen at the exact same time as the last entry's arrival. Note here that, when repeating the schedule, the first entry's arrival time only applies to the very first loop through the schedule. This allows you to have an initial arrival time that is executed once, but not repeated. If you would like the source to wait a given amount of time between the last arrival and the repeated first arrival, then add an extra entry to the end of the table, give it an arrival time greater than the previous entry's arrival time, but have 0 flow item arrive for that new entry."
