Abstract
A work machine discharges material through a discharge port at a moving discharge target in a coordinated maneuver during which the discharge target is confined to a bounded area. A distance control mechanism selects path information to a dwell location of the coordinated maneuver. Sensors generate respective signals by which a relative position of the discharge port to the bounded area are indicated during the coordinated maneuver. A messenger indicates the selected path information to compel relocation of the bounded area according thereto.
