SH-XP is a complete XP and rank progression overhaul for Arma Reforger. 

Every role on the battlefield has dedicated rewards that recognise how you actually play — whether you're a frontline assault soldier, squad leader, medic, pilot, builder, or intel runner. 

All rewards, cooldowns, thresholds, and multipliers are configurable through a single JSON file without touching a line of code.

9 Custom Ranks.

Progress from Private through Corporal, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, Major, Colonel, and Colonel all the way to General. Repeated friendly fire can drop a player to the Renegade punishment rank.

20 Custom XP Rewards.

- Revive / Combat Medic — Earn XP per revive, with a bonus for sustained medic performance across multiple revives in a rolling window
- Time on Objective — Sustained XP for holding a contested base while staying combat-active
- Group Cohesion — Scales with squad size: 4 XP per nearby squadmate in combat, from a minimum of 4 players up to a maximum of 8, rewarding tight coordinated play
- Overwatch — Kill an enemy actively threatening a nearby friendly
- Consecutive Caps — Bonus for capturing multiple bases in quick succession
- Counter-Attack — Recapture a base shortly after the enemy seized it
- Coordinated Push — Squad earns bonus XP when 3+ members participate in the same capture
- Squad Wipe — Eliminate every member of an enemy squad
- Fire Team — Squad racks up 3+ kills near an objective within a tight time window
- Designated Marksman — Kill an enemy threatening a nearby friendly
- First Defender — Be first on-site when your base comes under attack and deal damage
- Siege Breaker — Kill enemies while defending your own contested base
- Tank Hunter — Destroy multiple enemy vehicles near objectives within a time window
- Supply Run / Full Lift — Transport-based XP for logistics players and pilots
- Fortification / Full Base — Build defensive structures and complete base facilities
Comeback — Earn bonus XP when your faction controls fewer bases than the enemy
- Warlord — All-rounder milestone: kill, revive, capture, and build within a 45-minute window

Bonus Systems

- Kill Streak — Rack up consecutive kills near objectives without dying for a bonus on the third kill, resetting on death
- Underdog Multiplier — Automatically boosts all custom XP by ×1.15 when your faction controls 40% or fewer of all bases, rewarding the side that keeps fighting back
- Squad Leader Bonuses — Leaders earn exclusive rewards for commanding squads that defend bases and lead coordinated captures, scaling with how many squad members are actively present
- Enemy Squad Leader Kill — Bonus for eliminating a player who is actively leading their squad in the field

XP Event Log — Optional server-side logging of every custom XP award for balance tuning and diagnostics

Fully Configurable.

Every XP value, cooldown, distance, time window, and threshold is adjustable through a single JSON file. Rewards can be individually disabled by setting their XP to zero. Restart the server to apply any changes.
