startTransporterEntry()
Syntax
startTransporterEntry(x, y, player);
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Mandatory | Notes | Game version |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| x | Number |  | The x co-ordinate where the transport should appear from. | 3.2 |
| y | Number | | The y co-ordinate where the transport should appear from. | 3.2 |
| player | Number | | The ID of the player who the transport belongs to. | 3.2 |
Return value
Notes
This function is primarily designed for use in campaign missions. In other game modes, it would probably be better to use addDroid() instead.
When specifying the co-ordinates where the transport appears from, you should ideally choose a position at the edge of the map, otherwise it will look like the transport just appeared out of nowhere.
The droids on the transport can be defined in mdroid.ini (about which I know nothing – please provide details if you know more!)
When the transport arrives, eventTransporterArrived() will be triggered.
Example
startTransportEntry(47, 0, me);

Related objects:
Constants:
- .action – what action is the droid doing?
- .droidType – what category of droid is it?
- .order – what is the droids order?
Create them:
- makeTemplate() – check various things before building a droid
- componentAvailable() – is a component (propulsion, body or turret) available?
- addDroid() – instantly add a droid to the map
- buildDroid() – produce a droid at a factory
- getDroidProduction() – find out what droid a factory is currently producing
- setDroidExperience() – set experience of a droid
Organise them:
List or count them:
- hackGetObj() – get a single droid
- enumDroid() – list droids on the map
- enumArea() – list droids in specific area
- enumRange() – list droids near a location
- enumGroup() – list droids in a group
- enumSelected() – list droids that are selected
- countDroid() – count droids
Tell them what to do:
- orderDroid() – give a basic order
- droidCanReach() – can the droid reach it's destination?
- propulsionCanReach() – can a specific propulsion travel between two points?
- orderDroidBuild() – build a structure
- orderDroidLoc() – move to a location the map
- orderDroidObj() – do something to another object (attack, repair, etc)

- donateObject() – donate a droid to an ally
- eventObjectTransfer() – a droid was transferred or assimilated
Find out what's happening to droids:
- eventDroidBuilt() – droid built or added
- eventDroidIdle() – current orders completed
- eventSelectionChange() – human (de)selects droids
- eventArea<Label>() – droid enters a labelled area
- eventObjectSeen() – droid appears on your sensors
- eventAttacked() – cluster was attacked
- eventAttackedUnthrottled() – same as above, but unthrottled
- eventPickup() – picked up an artifact or oil drum
- eventDestroyed(), bind() – destroyed or recycled
Remove them:
- removeObject() – instantly remove a droid
- DORDER_DESTRUCT – an alternate method
- DORDER_RECYCLE – recycle a droid
- enableTemplate() – allow construction trucks to be built before HQ
- enableComponent() – make a droid component available to research
- makeComponentAvailable() – make a droid component available
- setDesign() – enable or disable design mode
- setDroidLimit() – limit the number of droids a player can make
- getDroidLimit() – determine the limits set for droids
- setExperienceModifier() – change rate at which droids gain experience
