As of ARMA 3 v1.26 the command will work on non-empty vehicles. If any of the crew defined in config are missing they will be added.

This command creates drivers/copilots, commanders and gunners where appropriate, but it never creates cargo crew. So a gunship Huron will get a pilot and copilot plus 2 door gunners, but nobody in the back.

createVehicleCrew does not work with Transport Unload waypoints for helicopters. You need to spawn the pilots separately and then get them into the helicopter in order to get Transport Unload waypoints to work.

The particular seats to which units are added depend on the dontCreateAI property, the hasDriver property of the base class, and the hasGunner propery of turret classes.
For instance, the following snippet calculates how many seats will be occupied by the created crew: private _vehCfg = configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> typeOf _vehicle; private _crewCount = {round getNumber (_x >> "dontCreateAI") < 1 && ((_x == _vehCfg && {round getNumber (_x >> "hasDriver") > 0}) || (_x != _vehCfg && {round getNumber (_x >> "hasGunner") > 0}))} count ([_vehicle, configNull] call BIS_fnc_getTurrets); Also, I've written a function to create a UAV crew for a specific side: https://gist.github.com/AgentRev/cb25d30e464f2239b6cee51fa0110c78
