Improve path picklist in Network Node properties

[clair_augsburgerZGWRZ]

[ FlexSim 23.0.5 ]

Open the attached model Network Nodes.fsm.

Select the network node StartPoint.

In the path picklist, select the path to the network node UnloadPoint3.

Actually you don't know which network node to pick since this picklist is not updated with the current network node names:

Could you please improve the Path picklist to show the current network node names instead of the names they had on creation ?

Hey @Clair A, I confirmed that the path names aren't updating after a connection is made to the node. If you disconnect and reconnect the Network Nodes it updates the names; however, that's not an effective solution. I have reported this bug to dev; thanks for bringing it to our attention!

Hi @Kavika F, is there a plan to fix this bug in a future release ?

[kavika_faleumu]

Hey @Clair A, there is currently no one actively working on this case; however, there are plans to fix it. I just can't guarantee which release.

This issue is currently very low priority. This is because the path names are user editable and the user is free to rename the path however they see fit. So:

1. This has a very easy workaround - the user just names the path the way they want
2. The fix isn't straightforward. We have to make sure not to overwrite the user's custom path name.
