Killzone_Kid

When unit with unassigned vehicle role enters a vehicle, it gets assigned vehicle role automatically. The unit then will hold on to its assigned role after exiting the vehicle.

To add, when player is in the group of AIs and is not the leader, assignedVehicleRole of the player could be unpredictable and absolutely not related to the position player occupies. In short, forget about this command, it is unreliable and has been broken too many times in the past.

In multiplayer (tested in v1.34), this only works reliably on the server.

Behaviour is as follows:
On a client, the command will return empty arrays for every unit that is not local.
On the server, the command correctly returns the position, regardless of the units locality.
