change parent

Is it possible to change an entity's parent or assign one, AFTER its been created?
I need to assign a pivot parent to a load of other entities after they'v been created so I can rotate them around the pivot, or is there a better way of doing this in Blitz3D.

I can't do it on creation of the entities for game reasons.

Yes, with the EntityParent command.

EntityParent entity,parent makes the parent association.
EntityParent entity,0: removes the parent association.
