Unexpected backtracking

Select the diagnostic action to take when a chart junction has both of the following conditions. The junction:

Does not have an unconditional transition path to a state or a terminal junction
Has multiple transition paths leading to it

This chart configuration can lead to unwanted backtracking during simulation.

Category: Diagnostics

Default: error

none: No warning or error appears.
warning: A warning appears, with a link to examples of unwanted backtracking.
error: An error appears and stops the simulation.

To avoid unwanted backtracking, consider adding an unconditional transition from the chart junction to a terminal junction.

Parameter: SFUnexpectedBacktrackingDiag

Value: 'none' | 'warning' | 'error'

Default: 'error'

Application	Setting
Debugging	`warning`
