X-dimension (Transporter)

When you select the loading space Type > Store, Plant Simulation activates the text box X-dimension.

Enter the dimension of the loading space of the Transporter along the x-axis. The loading capacity is the product of X-dimension times Y-dimension times Z-dimension. The greatest allowed value is one million.

When you decrease the dimension of the Transporter, make sure that no MUs are located on the storage places that will be deleted by this action! Either delete these MUs or move them to another storage place on the smaller loading space.

For loaded Transporters for which you activated the loading space Type > Store, Plant Simulation distributes the animation points, onto which it places loaded MUs, according to the dimension that you entered. If this dimension is too great to show the loaded MUs reasonably well, Plant Simulation does not show any MUs at all, but draws a pattern to signify that the object is not empty.

As long as the loading space is half empty, Plant Simulation shows a hatch pattern. If the loading space is more than half full, Plant Simulation shows a checker pattern.
