When a unit morphs, is it still the same unit (same UnitID)?

When a unit like a cruiser or drone engineer morphs, is it still the same unitID afterwards, or does the morph destroy the old unit and create a new one?

I have no idea, but:
I think that is what happens; the old unit is destroyed and the new one is created.
Just a pro-tip, you should probably put general questions like this in
Lua Scripts since more (knowledgeable) people look in there and fewer such people look here...
Just some friendly advice

If you use the gadget from CA/ZK then a new unit is created, hence it has a different unitid.

ok thanks.
I'm debating designs for YMSAI. The current unit production code is working but horribad. Needs cleaning up, probably a total rewrite.
