Hi, Has there been any progress on this? We are experiencing the exact same issue that Adam noted. Regards, Willem

Hi, It seems your count work to count it amount of times it changes (NumberCashiers). (Also just try adding the 's', and/or just altering the expression of NumberCashier) I would suggest using a state statistic element, that takes Cashier.CurrentCapacity as it state variable. It will give you the average value of Cashier.CurrentCapacity over time. Regards, Willem

Hi, You can use a wait step, waiting for the resource.released (doesn't appear in autocomplete, you have to type it in) A slightly worse method would be to scan the resource state to check when it becomes idle... Regards, Willem

Hi, Try "Math.If(CurrentStation != Nothing, CurrentStation.Contents.IndexOfItem(ParentObject), 0)" Regards, Willem

Hi, Maybe try: TableName[ Math.Ceiling(Random.Uniform(0,TableName.AvailableRowCount) , ColumnNumber ] Regards, Willem

Hi, It is a bit late but: Run.EndingTime - TimeNow Regards, Willem

Good day, We changed the file element to accept a property name, this allows the user to write files from several different sub models at the same time, or write out a different name based on some criteria. The file name is evaluate when the run is initialized. Use the CustomFile, CustomWrite and CustomRead. Code is not added as it is mostly the same as the normal read and write. Regards, SET Team CustomTextFileReadWrite.zip

Hi Johan, There is: DateTime.ToString(TimeNow, "HH:mm yyyy/MM/dd") see NET Standard Date and Time Format Strings https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0c899ak8(v=vs.110).aspx Or Search Datetime in the help file for more info. Regards, Willem

Hi, Switch to 3D mode by pressing 3, and the hold shift to move objects up and down.

Try the following: Specify the instance of the work, if you have only one: WrkA.DirectDistanceTo.Object(WrkB): {DirectDistanceTo.Object(WrkB[1])} Reference the model: WrkA.DirectDistanceTo.Object(TransferNode1): {DirectDistanceTo.Object(Model.TransferNode1)} Regards, Willem

Hi J, The following two function might help: StandardWeek.TimeUntilNextValue(TimeNow) - the amount of time before a change in Schedule StandardWeek.TimeOfNextValue(TimeNow) - the duration of the next value in schedule StandardWeek.NextValue(TimeNow) - the next value in the schedule So create a schedule and reference the schedule in your expression builder. Regards, Willem

Hi Marten, You can use the dynamic selection rule on the resource itself.

Good day, I was wondering if there is any university courses or academic programs/Institutions that Simio, or any Simio user would prescribe? Preferably for postgraduate studies. Regards, Willem

Hi, This might be handy to ensure you save frequently. We place the step on run initialized and it automatically saves the model (given the model is selected). See attached. Copy the extracted "SaveStep.dll" into "C:\Users\\Documents\SimioUserExtensions". You might need to add the SimioUserExtensions folder under MyDocuments (C:\Users\\Documents) if it does not already exist. Regards, SET Team SaveStep.rar

Hi, All you have to do is create a column in a table which contains the values to be sampled. Then you create a table value input parameter, and link it to the table column. I attached a model for reference. SampleFromTable.spfx
