What I want to do is that after they pass through the station that causes them to rotate 60 degrees and in the next station they come together so that there is not that separation as shown in the image. How can I solve that? conveyor.fsm
If the items are going to stay bunched together, at some point, the conveyor must slow the items down. The reason they won't get closer to each other, even if the conveyor is moving slowly, is that the stopping space is dependent on the item length, whether or not the item is rotated.
So I made a new ConveyorType called Diagonal, This conveyor type uses a fixed stop/move/entry distance of 0.705 (which is the inter-item distance, if they are rotated 60 deg).
I combined this with a third type, one that's fast, so that items can close the gap between them.
