I don't really understand what you mean about the bKeyVehicle. Do you want it enabled for them or disabled? Doesn't any vehicle disappear after some time of unoccupation?

And keep in mind that bKeyVehicle also affects other things like giving 5 points for a kill of the vehicle instead just one and bots in a key vehicle are told to never leave it at any time (well, that prevents them from building nodes in it but also prevents them to be stupid enough to have it stolen).

I think the pros and cons of bKeyVehicle are pretty obvious by now.
