AnyLogic 8.9.6 is the latest version of AnyLogic simulation software, released on September 8, 2025. It is a multimethod modeling tool that supports agent-based, discrete event, and system dynamics simulations, and is cross-platform compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. This version builds on the enhancements introduced in prior 8.9.x releases, such as improved robot control (e.g., 6-axis robotic arms for tasks like welding or palletizing), smarter material handling and storage behaviors, road traffic updates, NVIDIA Omniverse integration for 3D animations, Git version control, a memory dump analyzer for debugging, and one-click access to AnyLogic Cloud for collaboration.
Key Features and Updates in the 8.9 Series (Including 8.9.6)
- Material Handling Library: Introduces robotic arms and ProcessByRobot blocks for realistic industrial simulations, including multi-step workflows with tool switching and precise path following.
- Road Traffic and Pedestrian Libraries: Enhanced parking lot behaviors, density mapping, and transporter downtime modeling.
- Performance and Collaboration: Profiler tool for identifying bottlenecks, new file-based model format for easier team work, and direct database connections (e.g., Oracle, PostgreSQL) without extra drivers.
- Compatibility Notes: AnyLogic 8.9.6 requires an active maintenance contract (not expired before September 5, 2025) for activation. It is compatible with Team License Server 3.3 and later.
