[LUA] Remove unit promotion

[qqqbbb]

Can

pUnit:GetExperience():SetPromotion(PromotionIndex)

command be used to remove a promotion?

This

pUnit:GetExperience():SetPromotion(PromotionIndex, false)

does not work.

nope. JFD ran into this ages ago, and both he and I tested various different methods of using this function or attempting work-arounds. None work. Deleting and re-creating the unit does not work because you cannot set a unit's "Level" via lua nor can you attach modifiers the unit may have had from being trained in a given city, for example. And because of the way combat XP works in civ6, from the testing I did back then any XP points you add to a unit via lua beyond that needed for the 1st promotion go *poof* once the unit selects such a 1st promotion.

Deleting and re-creating the unit does not work...

What command do you use to delete a unit ?

I use

Players[iPlayer]:GetUnits():Destroy(pUnit)

Where I already have the unit object defined as "pUnit".

There is also a way to do it using UnitManager.Kill(args) but I am unsure what arguments are required.
