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.

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.
