Reinitialization of Discrete State in Explicit Event

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello, everyone,

I need to use the Explicit Event to change some variable at prescribed times.
However, I find that the variables does not change its values at the current event, but at the next event.

I have attached a file named "Test for Explicit Event" to explain what I mean. The setting of the explicit event is shown in Fig. 1. The initial values for variables a and b are both t and the time range for the simulation is "range(0,1,10)". So, the initial values of a and b are both zero. Moreover, the event starts at t = 1 s with a period of 1 s.

The final results can be seen in Table 1. Clearly, the value of variable a do not change instantly. For example, when t = 1 s, variable a should be 1, but it remains as zero and change to 1 at t = 2 s.

Can anyone help me solve the problem? Thanks in advance.
