How can I model a "flow through" storage rack in Anylogic? Meaning that the pallets will be stored from one end and be retrieved from the opposite end.
How can I model that the shelves in the storage racks have different heights. E.g. one rack have three levels: two shelves are 180cm and one shelf is 160 in the same rack.
Thanks.

As of now, you can't do any of these things with the current pallet racks objects.
The only way is to develop it yourself.
For #1, you can do it with a set of Fixed cell conveyors with some control over the conveyor movement... or a combination of roller conveyor/station ... it depends if each pallet will move independently or in group
For #2 you will have to develop it yourself, but in a way, you can just put the x conveyors i mentionned at customized heights and you are done
That's how i would do it

Maybe you mean gravity racks. I saw a presentation in which anylogic development team confirmed that they are working on those. Not sure by when they will release https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-WytqY1HbY&t=684s
Not sure if this is possible
