When I run my model, the console print this info:

Warning: the fonts "Times" and "Times" are not available for the Java logical font "Serif", which may have unexpected appearance or behavior. Re-enable the "Times" font to remove this warning.

In the Anylogic GIS environment, I want to send a message to the agents that are close to the agent that sends the message. Is it possible to send a message to more than one agent within a certain distance in a GIS environment?

Thanks,

I used send("msg", this.getNearestAgent(agents)); but it only sends the message to the one nearest agent and not the nearest ones.

I am a beginner in anylogic and I am modeling production process in which there are several different raw materials (defined as agents e.g. metal sheet A, metal sheet B, etc.) they are going through the process and create several types of final products… therefor I have to inject the materials based on production plan and store them in warehouse and then get them out of the warehouse according to the production plan and BOM of the product.

Let’s say that the situation is that Any logic should check the production plan hourly and inject the agents to the model according to that production plan. Here is a part of injection plan according to my monthly production plan. (I have this plan for 1 month and I want to simulate it.)

My question is that how can I set this production plan for anylogic to inject the materials to the model.

I am building an airport model with passengers spawning, shopping/eating and departing.

Most passengers rush to their GateArea (Polygonal Node) and wait there until they feel it is appropriate to engage in discretionary activities. When they think about leaving the GateArea they generate a "Eat"- or "Shop"- Goal" and are transferred into a PedGoTo-Block that is linked to the according shop. At this point I sometimes get the error:

I have just started to use Anylogic / JAVA and have assembled a process flowchart with agent components. The model includes extracting Histogram Data from a number of locations throughout the flowchart. I'm aiming to get the x%th percentile value of the histogram data such that I get the variable value (in this case queue and delay) that x% of the data is less than.

The help file suggests I can specify a low and high confidence value (i.e the x%th values) I wish to compute. However, during run time, I only see a CDF being shown in the graph and the percentiles are not available. How do I extract the percentile values post-simulation to display as an output? Is there a built-in way within Anylogic to do so?

The closest thing I found was the "getCDF function where I would have to write a custom function to find the closest index that yields the target x%th value. If I have to go the route of a custom function, I started the following code

I was hoping to pass to the function the individual Histogram Data objects as an argument and be able to use the Histogram Data methods within the function body. This does not work since the methods don't get recognized. What did I do wrong? The function is supposed to take in a variable histogram data object and given a specified percentile, calculate the pro-rated index value that yield the target percentile iterating through the getCDF function.

Thank you all for the help in advance!

I'm having an issue with Anylogic: I'm writing a function where I need to declare a new item of the type of an already existing Agent type. If I declare it with the code:

MyAgent name = new MyAgent();

everything is ok but when I try to execute a function to change the value of an internal value,

name.func();

it gives me a NullPointerException, because the internal variable of the declared MyAgent seems not to exist. What am I missing? Thanks a lot in advance for your help

I am an Engineering Student and as part of my diploma thesis, I am simulating the passenger changeover process in metros using the Anylogic Pedestrian Library.

In the simulation, it often happens that standing passengers "leave" the standing area and somehow get into the sitting places, blocking the way from other peds that would like to occupy the seat.

All passengers come from the Passenger Agent, where they have a boolean variable wantToSit. If wantToSit = false, they are routed into the standing area, with wantToSit = true they go to take their seats.

Now, I would like to restrict the access of peds with wantToSit = false into the area drown using polygonal nodes around the seat groups, so that the phenomenon written above cannot occur, thus only sitting passengers will enter this area.

However, when I try to define the condition for the access restriction in the polygonal Node, I always get the error "... cannot be resolved to a variable".

Here is the variable from the Agent "Passenger":

On the Agent "Main", where the Polygonal Node is, the auto code complete does not recommend anything for want or for ped. . For the word Passenger, see the picture below:

Is there a way to use the access restriction feature in this case? I don't know how to access this parameter of Passenger from Main, which is a different agent.

Thank you in advance for your help!

I've got another small issue with AnyLogic resources.

I want to be able to release a specific resource from a resource pool - not just any resource from the pool. The reason is that I occasionally seize multiple resources from a ResourcePool (one at a time) and then wish to release the resources again one at a time. But I don't want to release "any" resource from the pool, I want to be able to specify which specific resource of the pool to release.

Is this possible or is this one of the limitations of the resources implementation?

In AnyLogic 8, how do I create a Time Color Plot which has one row for each agent in a pool of agents?

As explained in an answer to this question, I can create a separate dataset for each row, and then have the Time Color Plot display one row for each dataset. But this requires hardcoding the number of datasets (and thus the number of agents), whereas I want to create a model with a variable number of agents and thus a variable number of rows in the Time Color Plot.

This AnyLogic cloud model includes a Time Color Plot where each forklift in a pool of agents has its own row in a Time Color Plot. Unfortunately, because it is a cloud model, I cannot download the model to investigate how it is built.

How do I create a Time Color Plot where each row corresponds to an agent in a pool of agents (like in that linked cloud model)?
