====== Ranks ======

**Ranks** summarise selected [[components:achievements|achievement]] rows into four independent progression ladders: Logistics, Airmanship, Exploration and Security. A player can hold one rank in each ladder at the same time.

Each achievement row contributes the highest tier reached in that row. Tier I is one point, Tier II is two points and so on, capped at the configured maximum for that row. One-off and prestige achievements outside a row add no points unless a rank explicitly names one as a capstone requirement.

Ranks are exclusive within one ladder. Promotion replaces the lower Discord role, and an opt-out removes public rank roles.

===== Logistics =====

The Logistics score uses Delivered Crates, Delivered Freight and Sites Supplied, each with four contributing tiers. Its Discord palette runs from bronze to gold.

^ Rank ^ Points ^ Additional requirements ^
| Courier | 3 | None. |
| Hauler | 6 | None. |
| Freight Forwarder | 9 | None. |
| Supply Master | 10 | At least tier III in all three Logistics rows, plus **Firefighter** or **Builder II**. |
| Magnate | 12 | A four-point contribution in all three Logistics rows, plus **Chain Reaction** and **Regional Lord**. |

===== Airmanship =====

The Airmanship score uses Landings, Flight Hours and Flight Distance, each with four contributing tiers. Its Discord palette runs from steel blue to azure.

^ Rank ^ Points ^ Additional requirements ^
| Student Pilot | 3 | None. |
| Aviator | 6 | None. |
| Captain | 9 | None. |
| Chief Pilot | 10 | At least tier III in all three Airmanship rows, plus **Smooth Operator** or **Efficiency Wonder**. |
| Master Aviator | 12 | A four-point contribution in all three Airmanship rows, plus **Steady Hands** and either **Night Shift III** or **Bad Weather Pilot**. **Iron Pilot** is tier IV of the Flight Hours row. |

Flight Distance belongs to Airmanship because Tycoon distance is predominantly flown while hauling, not while exploring.

===== Exploration =====

The Exploration score uses Mapped Sites, verified A/N Listening Time and Calibrated Sectors, each with three tiers. Its Discord palette runs from jade to signal green.

^ Rank ^ Points ^ Additional requirements ^
| Scout | 1 | None. |
| Pathfinder | 3 | None. |
| Trailblazer | 5 | None. |
| Surveyor | 7 | At least tier II in all three Exploration rows. |
| Pioneer | 9 | Tier III in all three Exploration rows. |

===== Security =====

The Security score uses Threats Neutralized, Threat Groups Cleared and Ambushes Repulsed, each with four contributing tiers. Its Discord palette runs from crimson to alarm red.

^ Rank ^ Points ^ Additional requirements ^
| Watchkeeper | 3 | None. |
| Patrol Pilot | 6 | None. |
| Escort Pilot | 9 | None. |

Security ranks IV and V are intentionally not available yet. Their thresholds and capstones will be defined only after real threat-group and ambush participation data has been reviewed.
