Ok, my misunderstanding was what CMTM was about in the first place.
...and I agree with the principle... I just seem to have in mind, a method more prototypical than to just have cars come out on their own.
I'm not even in the beginning stages yet to program something like what I have in mind yet. I only own TRS09, and have a steep learning curve (plus waiting for a LOT of issues to be sorted out with the program itself)
Being a truck driver, I don't get much time for coding like I used to. As much as I love truck driving, that is the one thing that I miss greatly, and is a shame I can't put in the time I used to.
I do intend, long-term, to offer some content eventually.
The plus about my current job, is I get to see a great deal of places I think would make for interesting scenarios. Many chances to photograph a wide variety of rolling stock too... like the company switchers at the steel plant I was just at yesterday...
I think my biggest hurdle may be trying to decide which to incorporate first!
Anyways, I look forward to seeing ways this may be implemented.

edit> Perhaps one of the things getting in the way of what I have in mind, is the lack of being able to use commands such as "pick up all full cars" or "couple 3 cars from track XX" or "decouple last 4 cars" or something to that effect.
One of the uses for this would be a staging yard for a power plant, for example. When I still drove a taxi, I spent some time at one, exchanging train crews.
An incoming coal train would set out all of its full cars in a marshalling yard, and pick up all of the empty cars to take back with them, while another pair of engines, stayed at the plant, taking a handful of full cars and emptying them as needed, and setting them out... This would go on at a fairly regular pace.
Sometimes, I have a coal train empty at a power plant, only to have some cars end up not empty, because the plant reached its capacity, and I don't have a method to command the driver to set out those non-empty cars, and only take back the empty ones.
I haven't finished skimming the whole asset repository tho, so if someone has already created some commands to do this kind of thing, please let me know.
