The feature is now available in ORNYMG 125.3 and in the Unstable release. Unfortunately I can't yet provide a demo environment, because I'm waiting for a copyright OK from some content developers.

At last a Container Demo Pack is available. ContainerDemoPack.zip Rev. 1.0 can be downloaded from the bottom of my download page (see my signature). Unzip the pack in a temporary folder and read the readme before proceeding!

Congratulations Carlo for the work.
Only one problem, I can't download the third link, it tells me that it can't find it.

Hi Pedro,
probably that website does not accept that type of links. Try this: go to the search area of www.trainsim.com, and search for atwellsoceanset30.zip .

In addition to OR_NewYear_MG 126.3, the feature is now available also in the official Testing release T1.4-565. Complete info is now present also in the updated manual. Press the Documentation button on the main menu window of the Testing release and select Manual.pdf. In paragraph 7.8 "Loading and Unloading Containers" the info to play the feature can be found, while in paragraph 9.4 "Container management" the whole info for trainset, routes, container objects (containers and container cranes) and activity creators is available.
The documentation in the manual supersedes the technical info contained in this thread.
The demo route can still be downloaded from the link at the bottom of my download page (see signature below).

Hi. I'm starting to convert all my container transport wagons to use this feature.
I'm having trouble and doubts on one thing:
- When allocating cargo through .con file the wagons just present themselves with the weight as being unloaded. Is this a limitation from that type of allocation or am I'm forgetting to add something to the *.load-or ?
*.wag file (actually in a *.inc file

If you are defining the loaded wagons through the .con file (which is one of the two options available to define loaded wagons), what you have to insert in the .wag file is simpler than what you have posted above.
It's convenient to you if you check the container demo pack that I have uploaded (link should be in one of the above posts).
Within "1 GP38 + container allengths.con" you find e.g.:
The FreightAnim block for CZ-MT-Sggnss-empty.wag is
(Don't consider the two FreightAnimStatic blocks here, they only add details to the wagon).
As an example, the first of the 4 containers loaded in this wagon is described in file 20msc.load-or within folder Common.containerdata; such file has following content
If you instead want to define the initial wagon load in the .wag file, here is an example of the FreightAnims block in the .wag file:
In this case you don't need the LoadData lines in the reference to the wagon within the .con file.

The FreightAnim block for CZ-MT-Sggnss-empty.wag is
ORTSFreightAnims ( MSTSFreightAnimEnabled ( 0 ) WagonEmptyWeight( 21.5t ) EmptyMaxBrakeForce ( 47kN ) EmptyMaxHandbrakeForce ( 15kN ) EmptyORTSDavis_A ( 465.8 ) EmptyORTSDavis_B ( 3.2 ) EmptyORTSDavis_C ( 0.9942 ) EmptyCentreOfGravity_Y ( 2.02 ) IsGondola ( 0 ) UnloadingStartDelay ( 2 ) LoadingEndDelay ( 2 ) IntakePoint ( 0 6.0 Container) LoadingAreaLength ( 24.48 ) Offset (0 1.212 0) FreightAnimStatic ( SubType( Default ) FreightWeight( 0.01t ) Shape( "..\\COMMON_Container_3d\\FA-Sggnss\\CZ-MT-Sggnss-FA.s" ) Offset( 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ) Flip ( 0 ) ) FreightAnimStatic ( SubType( Default ) FreightWeight( 0.01t ) Shape( "..\\COMMON_Container_3d\\FA-Sggnss\\CZ-MT-Sggnss-FA-40_40.s" ) Offset( 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ) Flip ( 0 ) ) )

If you instead want to define the initial wagon load in the .wag file, here is an example of the FreightAnims block in the .wag file:

In this case you don't need the LoadData lines in the reference to the wagon within the .con file.
