 ### **End Conditions**
 
-The `StartPlannerModule` terminates if the pull out / freespace maneuver has been completed. The `canTransitSuccessState` function assesses these conditions to decide if the module should terminate its execution.
+The `StartPlannerModule` terminates when specific conditions are met, depending on the type of planner being used. The `canTransitSuccessState` function determines whether the module should transition to the success state based on the following criteria:
 
-```plantuml
-@startuml
-start
-:Start hasFinishedPullOut();
+#### When the Freespace Planner is active
 
-if (status_.driving_forward && status_.found_pull_out_path) then (yes)
+- If the end point of the freespace path is reached, the module transitions to the success state.
 
-  if (status_.planner_type == FREESPACE) then (yes)
-    :Calculate distance\nto pull_out_path.end_pose;
-    if (distance < th_arrived_distance) then (yes)
-      :return true;\n(Terminate module);
-    else (no)
-      :return false;\n(Continue running);
-    endif
-  else (no)
-    :Calculate arclength for\ncurrent_pose and pull_out_path.end_pose;
-    if (arclength_current - arclength_pull_out_end > offset) then (yes)
-      :return true;\n(Terminate module);
-    else (no)
-      :return false;\n(Continue running);
-    endif
-  endif
+#### When any other type of planner is active
+
+The transition to the success state is determined by the following conditions:
+
+- If a reverse path is being generated or the search for a pull out path fails:
+  - The module does not transition to the success state.
+- If the end point of the pull out path's shift section is reached:
+  - The module transitions to the success state.
+
+The flowchart below illustrates the decision-making process in the `canTransitSuccessState` function:
