ground sea transports

to check and improve

local loader=piece "loader"

function script.QueryTransport(passengerID)
return loader
end

function script.TransportPickup (passengerID)
Spring.Echo(passengerID)
SetUnitValue(6, 1)-- BUSY      set BUSY to 1;
Spring.UnitScript.AttachUnit(slot, passengerID)
currSlot=currSlot+1
SetUnitValue(6, 0)--set BUSY to 0;
end

function script.EndTransport(each, passengerID)--ground UnloadLandFlood  after the last unit unloaded.
end

function script.TransportDrop (passengerID, x, y, z )
SetUnitValue(6,1)-- BUSY
Spring.UnitScript.DropUnit(passengerID)
SetUnitValue(6,0)
end

Air transports

todo

function script.BeginTransport(passengerID) end

ModRule tags involved in transportation :

bool transportAir Default: false

Can aircraft be transported?

bool transportShip Default: false

Can ships be transported?

bool transportHover Default: false

Can hovercraft be transported?

bool transportGround Default: true

Can ground units be transported?

bool targetableTransportedUnits Default: false New in version 89.0

Can transported units be targeted by weapons? true allows both manual and automatic targeting.

UnitDef tags involved in transportation :

transportCapacity=1,-- - Int - This is simply the number of units it can hold

transportMass=15000,-- Float - This is the total maximum mass of units it can hold (Mass being another unitdef tag which defaults to the buildCostMetal)

transportSize=6,-- - Int - This is the maximum size of unit it can hold, in terms of the transportees footprintX

minTransportSize=1,-- - Int - The minimum size of footprint that this transport can hold

minTransportMass=1,-- - Float - The minimum mass a unit must have to be transported by this (N.B. this is not quite the inverse of transportMass)

cantBeTransported=true,-- - bool - This unit can / cannot be transported by any transport

transportByEnemy=true,-- - bool - This unit can / cannot be transported by enemy transports

ReleaseHeld = true, --transported units survive if transporter dies

HoldSteady=1, --useless for ground transport --maybe transported units tilt and turn like the transporter

transportUnloadMethod = 0,--UnloadLand (0)defaultunload --UnloadDrop (1)fly over and drop unit-- UnloadLandFlood (2) land, then release all units at once

loadingRadius=999,--defaults to 220

isfireplatform=true,
