EV3 simulator doesn't move unless motion restricted

I made a simple EV3 programme with a start block and a tank block set to go forward at 10% power for one rotation. The simulator did what was expected.

I then changed the tank block mode to ON with no restriction on the distance it would go and the simulator refused to move at all. Is this intentional?

Grateful for advice.

I am using version 2.7.12346.0

  Hello,

  Thank you for the question.
  When you turn on a Move Tank block without any restriction then the robot turns on and the program ends. This is exactly how a physical LEGO robot will behave too. So, it is advisable to use the Move Tank block in a loop when using with ON option.

  Thanks for your very clear explanation which explains my problem. Incidentally I have added another post on the subject of customised environments.
