No, if you hit C while transfering Peons they will go to the closest Townhall. i.e. you have to do this after they're halfway to the Townhall you want them at and, although, yes, it is morre mine-effective, you'd better spend your clicks on something else since you have a reaver in your base.

And it's perfect for splitting peons arriving at a fresh expo in the most efficient manner possible.


Yeah you gotta wait till they're nearer to the CC corresponding to the destination minerals before you use it.

Another use for it is to scout your opponent after your original scout dies, while you have vision of his minerals with your first scout simply select a worker in your main that is carrying minerals and quickly tell it to mine one of the patches in his main, then hit 'Stop' and wait, when you want your free scout of his base simply hit 'C' and said peon will return the minerals it's carrying to your CC and will maynard it's way to your opponent's base running right through whatever he may have blocking his ramp.
