The AGV with the trailer attached goes through the T-junction

If an AGV with a trailer attached has a slight incline on the transport path before the T-junction, it will not be able to turn right at the T-junction properly.

I have confirmed that if I adjust the inclination issue, the car can turn right normally, but I would like to maintain the inclination if possible.

What kind of measures can be taken?

This looks like correct behavior to me. The issue is that the slanted path creates a larger change in rotation for the AGV. Note the AGV's rotation when it is on the slanted path:

When the AGV gets to the next path, its rotation needs to be 0 in order face forward along that path. The default AGV settings indicate that if the AGV changes rotation by more than 91°, it will need to reverse directions. The solution is to update the AGV settings:

A value higher than 96.98 will resolve the issue. However, you'll probably want a more permissive value, like 120 or even 179.
