Please change bool occupied to int occupied.
This give us current transport occupy info and can work as bool.
You get real payload and others get "1".

When we move from land to sea on transport we must
first call send_unit_info_to_onlookers(...) this make move animation.
Next load unit on transport and send REMOVE_UNIT package to all players 
without vison plus send_unit_info_to_onlookers(...) to others.

This allow you don't use any exception but force send secoud info 
package.
