Only enables the user actions, not who is in control - pilot can lock or unlock co-pilot controls in multiplayer while still true.

Actions: LockVehicleControl, UnlockVehicleControl, SuspendVehicleControl and TakeVehicleControl
You can use the Arma 3 Event Handler - ControlsShifted to detect Take and Release actions.
