sendTo

fun sendTo(destinationName: String): Boolean(source)

Sends an unallocated transporter to a destination, without an entity aboard.

This is how a transporter is repositioned: to a home base, to a staging area, or simply out of the way. It returns as soon as the movement has begun; the transporter travels over simulated time and the caller does not wait.

Return

true when a movement was started, false when the transporter was already there

Parameters

destinationName

an intersection name or station alias

Throws

when the transporter is allocated to an entity
