FLEXSIM-12843-FLEXSIM-11184-Fix-Travel-Arrival-Mismatch-For-Home-Location

[Shivi-lab]

Issue: With A* enabled, OnResourceAvailable → Travel to Home Location sends the operator toward Source but stops after a few steps. The event list loops on A* ArrivalEvents and Delay task completions. Without A*, travel completes normally.

Root cause: A* treats arrival as “within grid-cell threshold,” while the home picklist still sees distancetotravel > threshold and re-dispatches travel causing an infinite loop.

Fix: In Traveler::onArrival, detect the home picklist pattern (TASKTYPE_TRAVEL followed by TASKTYPE_DELAY(0)). If distancetotravel still exceeds the picklist threshold and the operator is not yet at destLoc, walk a short final leg before completing the travel task.

Fix applies to the standard “Travel to a Home Location” picklist (TRAVEL + DELAY(0)). Custom home-travel task sequences may still need separate handling.

Pull request overview

This PR addresses an A* “arrival” mismatch that can cause an infinite travel loop when executing the standard “Travel to a Home Location” picklist sequence (TRAVEL followed by DELAY(0)). The change adds logic in Traveler::onArrival to detect that home-travel pattern and, when the picklist still considers the traveler “not arrived,” perform a short final leg to reach destLoc before completing the travel task.

Changes:

• Detect the “home location” picklist task pattern (TRAVEL → DELAY(0)) during A* arrival handling.
• If the picklist still sees remaining distance beyond a threshold, initiate a short final-leg navigation toward destLoc and return early.
