openTCS/opentcs — reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a Java 21 desktop based transportation control system for managing a fleet of automated guided vehicles and mobile robots in a warehouse or factory. I want a central kernel that keeps track of the plant map, vehicles, routes, orders, dispatching, scheduling, and resource reservations, plus simple desktop tools to edit the plant layout, start and monitor the kernel, and watch daily operations.

It doesn’t need to talk to real robots out of the box. Make it a flexible framework where vehicle drivers can be plugged in later, with a loopback or simulator adapter so I can test routes and transport orders without hardware. Include clear docs, sample configuration, and a clean Gradle build. Keep the design generic so different vendors and project specific routing or dispatch strategies can be added. Use Java 21, and look up current docs online if you need to.
