Just to be clear, the non-player locomotives in the train are only refuelled when they are lined up with the water tower/fuel pump, right? Obviously immediate refuel doesn't care.

Exactly James. I had a brief challenge in understanding the use of steam locomotives with the tenders, but I finally solved this part. So now, individual locomotives, both steam(with tender) and diesel that are part of the player's train can be individually refueled when lined up with the refueling object and immediate refueling will automatically refuel all locomotives that are part of the player's train.
I still have some minor details to work out yet, but the main process is completed.

Edit: I would not assume that all steam locomotives would use tenders. It just so happens that I specified the tender above because under OR, the tender is just a wagon to test for that uses the intake point, but the steam locomotive has the controller information that is needed for the refueling process.

The "IntakePoint" information for water and coal are stated in the tender (*.wag) file.

That is correct, but the primary information needed for the fueling process is included with the steam locomotive. At the moment, the tender without the steam locomotive can't be refueled.
