Stop a Transporter

Hello

We are trying to make trains (transporters) move on tracks which we built by network nodes and links joining them and we have built a user event for our train to check every time tick, if the network node in front is available or not.

basically we have assigned
"linkstate" to the "type" of that node ( connections/connectionsout/To NN2/type).....
and in our user event for the trains,
if linkstate == 1
"setstate of train to busy or blocked " - but this actually doesnt stop the train, it just sets the state to busy. we were wondering what code do we use so that if the linkstate is 1, we could make the train stop and if it is 2, we could make the train move. There should be come code we missed out, to make the train stop before setting its state to busy or blocked.

thanks

Hi,

Setting states concerns only the statistics.
The traveling of taskexecuters is controlled by the mechanism of the tasksequences. If you want a taskexecuter changes its actual behaviour, give it something else to do. The main concept is to preempt the actual tasksequence. A utilize-task stops the movement of the taskexecuter and changes the state. If you want the taskexecuter to resume, the utilize-task ends with the command freeoperators.
