How to unload top pallet

I have a plastic pallet that always stays on a conveyor loop. I used a combiner to load a unit load onto the plastic pallet. Now i want to use a fortruck to unload the unit load (top part) only. How do I refer to the top part? Right now the forktruck is taking both. I created the objects in process flow but the token names are in a different part of the code than where I'm unloading.

You need a relative reference to subnodes of the item on your conveyor.
there are some properties to get such a pointer.

Referencing Objects

please try last.

Ok, that worked to load the bottom pallet but now I can't get the forktruck to unload it. I tried item, current, .last and .first. Any ideas?

Hello @Amy M3,

It is hard to know exactly what reference to give you without seeing your model. Are you able to upload it?

What you picked up is now a subnode of the forklift. Are you referencing the right object that the items are contained in?

Please ask a new question and attach a model. It is really difficult to guess how you have built your model so far. Is it a 3D trigger logic, a tasksequence list driven logic, a dispatched tasksequence or a process flow tasksequence? Many thanks!
