Ranks and achievements
Rank foundation implemented and locally verified September 26: confirmed common/uncommon/rare/gold/diamond units earn 1/3/5/10/50 points; actual credits give event-time syndicate standing; artifacts give discovery/standing, no rank. Authoritative versioned awards preserve earned tiers; spending, losses and sponsor changes do not erase rank. Existing Flight Board, sponsor cards and quiet visor identity show recognition. No XP bar, flight promotion banner or rank-based power. Evidence: docs/plans/career-ledger-implementation.md and career-balance.md. Human 80–120-hour pacing and live service acceptance remain unverified. Remaining proposal: docs/plans/career-recognition-and-leaderboards.md v0.2, September 27, supersedes the older achievement shortlist: 29 planned achievements (11 promotions, 18 distinctions), 23 achievable with the two playable sponsors; docked recognition/career review, cosmetic recognition and public opt-in website leaderboards require their recorded decisions. This does not approve new presentation, rewards, Steam configuration or additional playable syndicates. Steam is an output, not progression authority. FEATURE-39 owns facts, FEATURE-40 collections, FEATURE-13 cosmetics. TASK-7–11 retain environment, haul, evidence, mirror and provenance gaps where applicable; missing provenance cannot be invented.
