Hello Everyone!
I came across a problem I can’t seem to find a workaround for. Basically what I want to do in my Layout, is to have appointed Human Resources to be able to work at multiple workstations depending on where there is a Part coming in. In my Layout that would be Worker “1” in yellow. She would work at one of the orange circled stations by default, but if there is no part coming in from the Pink workers “Z”, and there is a part coming in to the blue “X” workers and they are all occupied, then she should come and take the empty station and help until a part is coming in from “Z” workers. In that case she should finish the job at “X” workers and return to the Orange station.
I made a separated Controller for worker “1” and made the work statements and flows according to that she can only work at one of the empty stations in each area.
My problem is: When shes in area “X” and a part is coming in from area “Z”, worker “2” does not go to collect the part, instead waits until worker “1” return and then they both take a part and start working, until no more parts are left in the buffer.
And when shes working in the Orange area, then “X” workers are waiting for her to return before delivering their done products and taking a new one from their buffer.
I tried changing the flows priorities, but no result. I want them to be able to work independently from worker “1” in both areas. Any help would be appreciated!
