Combining AGV Networks with Submodels

I have been experimenting with using submodels to import a container from a submodel to a main model. I have observed that if the container in the submodel contains objects that are part of an AGV network (paths, control points, etc), the AGV network node is a locked dependency.

 

If the main model also contains an AGV network, the import GUI will display a warning that the main model's AGV network will be replaced by the submodel's AGV network. If this replacement is accepted and an instance of the submodel is placed into the main model, the main model's AGV network will no longer be runnable and a FlexSimEventHandler error will pop up in the System Console. 

 

I would like to be able to merge a submodel with an AGV network into a main model with an AGV network and have both networks function in one model. Is there a way to achieve this? If not, is enabling this capability with submodels on the FlexSim team's development roadmap?

I realized that if I just ignore the errors, save the model, close it out, and reopen, the model is able to run and both the imported submodel AGV network and the main model AGV network are able to run without issues.
