I have a network of Path and PointNode objects. I want to send a Transporter to a certain node in the network. In that node the transporter should stop. Now I send a second Transporter to that same node. The second Transporter can reach the target node (and drives physically into the first Transporter). A transporter in a node seems not to occupy part of the path. Nodes seem to have unlimited capacity. I want the first Transporter I sent to the node just to stop at the node an still occupy the path, so that when sending a second transporter it can not reach its final position at the node unless the first Transporter leaves to a next target. Any idea how to model this appropriately in AnyLogic? For me it seems to be a simple buffering and I do not understand why nodes have unlimited capacity in Anylogic. Thanks in advance!

"Nodes and paths are space markup elements that define the locations of agents in the space". To define the capacity, you can take a look at incorporating the ResourcePool and related constructs (cease, release, delay, service) in the Process Modeling Library.
