| The range of a porter is unlimited (whole map). While in-game, the route is shown with an arc (implying a ballistic trajectory to the target), it is actually delivered by a normally moving delivery drone. | The range of a porter is unlimited (whole map).

| - | If the destination of a route is not clear -- generally, this means the previous pod is still present -- then the delivery drone will wait in the air for the ground to be free. You can manually destroy the old pod (new pod will land, unload, and return for the next load), or give the drone a new landing location (new pod will land at the new location, unload, and then repeat delivery to the new location). Caution! Be certain that the *pod* on the ground is selected, and not the *porter* itself. | + | If the destination of a route is not clear -- generally, this means the previous pod is still present -- then the delivery drone will wait in the air for the ground to be free.

| Pods are destroyed if touched by creeper. However, a delivery drone will not land if there is creeper at the destination. So, a pod load of liftic can be sent near a totem, and it will wait for a squad of cannon (or mortar) to clear a landing spot. This can secure a totem as a drop shipment, without having to fight to it. | Pods are destroyed if touched by creeper. However, a delivery drone will not land if there is creeper at the destination.
