The rank.tbl is used to define different ranks that can be obtained during the game.

This table is one of the Modular Tables and can be extended with xxx-rnk.tbm

Notes

  • Points gained in the game depend heavily on the difficulty level
Very Easy x 0.2
Easy x 0.4
Medium x 0.7
Hard x 1.0
Insane x 1.2


Format

  • Table begins with [RANK NAMES]
FS2 Open, 23.2:
  • Table can begin with #Ranks
  • Invidual ranks, each starting with $Name:
  • Table ends with #End
  • FS2 Open, 23.2:
    • Ranks will be automatically sorted at parse based on point value


    Ranks

    $Name:

    • Defines the name of the rank
    • Syntax: String


    +nocreate

    FS2 Open, 23.2:
    • Allows editing of the rank entry without creating a new entry


    $Points:

    • Defines the number of points required to achieve the particular rank
    • Syntax: Integer


    $Bitmap:

    • Defines the name of the bitmap used for the rank insignia
    • Syntax: String


    $Promotion Voice Base:

    • Defines the base name of the voice file used for the promotion. In different parts of the campaign different voices are used; these are controlled by the debriefing persona. This is hard-coded for the main FreeSpace2 campaign but can be specified for user-made campaigns.
    • Syntax: String
    FS2 Open, 3.7.2:
    • If the value of Debriefing Persona for the mission has been set, that value plus an underscore plus the base filename becomes the filename FSO will search for.
    • For example, if this value is set to rank_a.wav and the mission's Debriefing Persona value is 10, FSO will look for and play the file 10_rank_a.wav.


    $Promotion Text:

    • Defines the text displayed at the debriefing when the rank is achieved. Value is a reference for the translations found from tstrings.tbl. Is always followed by $end_multi_text.
    • Syntax: XSTR( "String", Integer )
    FS2 Open, 3.7.2: Starting with 3.7.1, multiple $Promotion Text fields may exist, each (except for the default) followed by its own Persona. The mission's Debriefing Persona Index controls which one is used.


    +Persona:

    FS2 Open, 3.7.2:
    • Optional. Defines the persona associated with this text. If specified, this particular text will be chosen when the Debriefing Persona Index matches. The Debriefing Persona is a number set for a given mission using the campaign editor.
    • Syntax: Integer
