deliver <what> <sectors> {(<threshold>)} {<sector>}
   After playing Empire for a while, you will notice that moving various
supplies from sector to sector on a regular basis takes up too much time and
BTU's. Automatic deliveries are the cure for this problem. Any civilians,
military, shells, guns, planes, iron ore and gold bars can be automatically
delivered from a given sector to any neighboring sector (orthogonal or
diagonal). The 'deliver' command is used to set up and query delivery
settings. Delivery directions will also show up on the 'census' listing. In
its simplest form, a delivery is specified as in this example:

  deliver c 0,0 (50) -1,0

   This specifies that whenever sector 0,0 is updated, and it contains more
than 50 civilians, the excess civilians should be moved to sector -1,0
(subject to the player owning sector -1,0 and sector 0,0 having enough
mobility). The threshold (50) can be omitted, in which case a threshold of 0
is used. A more complex example:

  deliver o -2:0,-3:-1 (20)

   Here, Empire will prompt for each owned sector in the specified region, as
to where to deliver ore to. Again, the threshold can be omitted. Also, on the
individual replies to the prompts, the destination sector can be followed by
a threshold in parentheses which will be used for that particular delivery.
If the form

  deliver b -10:10,-10:10 +50

is used, then the thresholds for, in this case, gold bars, will be changed
without changing any delivery destinations. The final form:

  deliver s -5:5,-2:7 -

will simply print out the delivery destinations and thresholds for each
sector in the region which has a delivery set up.

   Deliveries are performed whenever sectors are updated. A message of the
form "delivery walkout between r,c & r,c" indicates that a sector was trying
to deliver to a sector you don't own.
