Prevent Stacking/ Maximum Stack

In the attached model, trucks will end up stacking on top of each other and I'm trying to prevent this. I'm not sure if it's because of the dimension of the rack or not. Is there a way where only 1 truck can occupy 1 available space at a time?

You can change the Slot Assignment Strategy so that the slot has to have enough space to fit the truck in. However, due to how the required space is calculated, you would have to change the storage to have 8 bays with 1 level each and have each slot large enough to fit the entire truck.

You can also slightly modify the current assignment strategy by adding the condition that the slot must be empty.

I was trying the empty slot strategy but had a few errors in my code. This works nicely, thank you Felix!
