Morphing a soldier with given wp into a platoon of tanks?

[Malm]

Is it possible to change one type of unit into another type or create new units using createvehicles that followes the originally unit's waypoints?

I got a soldier with a set of waypoints that when he arrives at his wp(1) trigger a script that creates four T-55.

I want that soldier to either become assigned to or getinas commander and then have the newly spawned tanks to follow the rest of his waypoint.

Also what happens to a units waypoints after he was assigned to a group if he is deleted soon after?

"t55 = group this; this exec "delete.sqs"

delete.sqs:
~2
deletevehicle _this

Can other units be assigned to that group and what happens if you use [t55, 3] SetWpPos ... after he was deleted?

I have tried and tried but my T-55 wont move a square after they have been created !

I thought that u can only create empty vehicles, so they can not move to waypoints

Yes, createvehicle creates empty vehicles only.

You would need to create units (Using createUnit) to crew the tanks with and then get them to board as crewmen.

Ok sorry my fault I didn't mention that part.

:
:
"SoldierGcrew" CreateUnit [getpos _zSpawnpos, _theGrp, "", 1, "CORPORAL"]
"SoldierGcrew" CreateUnit [getpos _zSpawnpos, _theGrp, "", 1, "CORPORAL"]
_array = units _theGrp

_tank = "T55" CreateVehicle getpos _zSpawnpos
_array select _i moveindriver _tank
_array select (_i + 1) moveingunner _tank
