Transfer disappearance phenomenon.

[kimsh]

[ FlexSim 23.2.2 ]

Hmm....when I start simulation, it sometimes stops in certain sections, because the transfer that connects the conveyor is gone. Reset the simulation, left click on the model, and the trasfer will appear again. By the way, zooming in with the mouse wheel, the trasfer disappears again...why is this happening?

Can you post your model so we can take a look? Have you tried using the latest supported version?

transfer1.fsm

Which transfer is exhibiting the issue? And can you post a version that is set to the same visualization where you see it occurring?

[kimsh]

Well, when I run the simulation, it sometimes stops before the source. It shouldn't stop there, but when I run it now, there is a section where it stops. If you zoom in, you can see that the transfer is gone.

Some of the conveyors are placed inside the plane while the majority are not. This might be the cause of the transfers disappearing (possibly when the plane is moved by accident).

Try placing either all or none of the conveyors in the plane. You might also want to consider setting the plane to be "Protected" or even "No Select" it to prevent accidental changes to its position and make working with objects on top of it easier.

Exactly! I've seen that there are a few containers attached to the plan, but I never imagined this would be a problem! Thank you for the clear answer!
I'm so happy that you even told me the answer right away!
