The solution to the transporter conundrum is that they are inserted into another dimension and pop out of that dimension wherever you choose. That way they remain whole and alive.
Im working on one of those. So far, I can transport them in, but nothings come back yet...
I wish you would hurry up and finish the darn thing! They've been piling up in my garage!
