In other words, randomly generated situations,emergencies, system failures and things like that. Theberbster says that a modded SH5 comes close to what you describe. Check out the forums for the same mods he uses or better yet, talk with him.
All The things you describe sounds good and they are great Ideas. This is where Innovation starts. If a good program can be started, written and coded that can take advantage of multiple core systems, chances are good we may all see something like you described.
Neal himself is probably thinking along the same lines with the project he is working on. It sounds promising as well.
