[ FlexSim 20.0.0 ]

In AGV Process Flow Template, UnloadToEmpty process flow variable is used in activity Should I Stay in Unload Mode. But there is no description of this variable for what purpose or how it should be used in Description.

Where as other Process Flow Variables description is available to read as you can see in below Descrption imgae.

Please let us know what is the purpose of UnloadToEmpty variable and how it is used in AGV Template.

current.subnodes.length > 0 && getprocessflowvar(processFlow, "UnloadToEmpty", token)!=0

If this variable is set to true, then the AGV will unload all of its items, no matter what their destination is, before looking for more items to load. If you are only loading/unloading a single item at a time, this variable doesn't make a difference. If you are loading multiple items at once, this variable basically controls whether an AGV has to be totally empty before loading, or if it can load new items on top of a previous batch of items.
