After the AGV completes its task under the control of Mission Controller, is there a bug where the AGV cannot automatically return to the Idle Location?

As shown in the attachment, I want each AGV to return to the Idle Location after completing its task and wait for a new task. The Activator selects Scheduled and checks Recurring. I have tried different Recurringlnterval values, but different situations have occurred:
When the Recurringlnterval is 1, the AGV completes the task and then waits for a new task at the original location;
When the Recurringlnterval is 30 or 40, the AGV automatically returns to the Idle Location to wait for a new task after completing the task a few minutes before running. When there is a new task, the AGV immediately responds, which is what I want. However, after running for a few minutes, the AGV cannot automatically return to the Idle Location;
When the Recurringlnterval is a larger value, the new task AGV cannot respond immediately and needs to wait for the Recurringlnterval time to trigger;

I checked the PM Missions Reference Guide_01-06-2023, which mentions RecureEvery, but I couldn’t find it in the 4.9 version of Mission Controller; I am very confused about this and hope that the VC official can help me

The AGV does not go to the idle location because it is executing a mission. Problem in the example layout is that the mission RecurringInterval is 1 second, so there is always a mission available, even when there are no parts at the feeder.
Change the RecurringInterval to something bigger like 45 seconds and then the AGVs will go to idle between missions.

If you don’t want to set the RecurringInterval to be too large, you could trigger the mission with a signal that is sent from the feeder when there is a part available.
