Hi @Kyle Y,

Here are some resources regarding launching external programs from FlexScript:

Comment back with any specific questions that aren't addressed there.

Also, FlexSim includes an A* Navigator object with a built-in A* algorithm that you can use for path finding. You don't need to connect to an external A* script if you just use the built-in feature of the software.
