Item orientation after turntable in conveyor

[ FlexSim 20.0.3 ]

Hello everyone,

We are modelling a turntable by using a decision point with kinematics logic inside. The thing is, after turning at the decision point and when moving to another conveyor, the pallet orientation seems not to be respected after the turn.

Does anybody know why this is happening? Thanks!

You copied part of the "Rotate Item" picklist, but not all of it. You are missing the call to conveyorItem.turn() that lets the conveyor system know that its direction is changed.

Copy all those "doTurn" lines into your code, and it will fix your issue:
