Proper initialization of parameters in AnyLogic, don’t get caught off guard
Unexpected behavior in your AnyLogic model? It might be due to improper parameter initialization. This post explains why parameters don’t always behave like variables, how initialization timing affects your model, and what best practices to follow to keep your simulations running as intended. Don’t get caught off guard—initialize properly!
