TBK - Saved Progression

TBK Saved Progression adds persistent player progression to Arma Reforger servers.

Players earn score through gameplay, build up lifetime stats, and progress through configurable military rank tiers. This system runs separately from Reforger's native rank mechanics, so vanilla progression and game balance remain untouched. TBK ranks are a persistent community identity layer, shown visually through the HUD, chat, and player name tags without granting gameplay advantages.

Features:
- Persistent player score and statistics
- Configurable rank tiers, thresholds, short tags, and icons
- Rank display in chat
- Rank insignia on player name tags
- Optional text rank prefix on name tags
- Inventory HUD panel showing current rank, score, kills, deaths, and objective stats
- Tracks player kills, AI kills, deaths, playtime, and match data
- Server-authoritative progression
- Works out of the box with local JSON file storage
- Optional HTTP bridge mode for external/cross-server progression storage
- Auto-enables for Conflict game mode
- Can also be manually attached to custom game mode prefabs

Default storage mode is local file storage, so no database or external service is required. On first run the addon creates a config file at:

$profile:TBKSavedProgression/config.json

Server owners can edit this file to adjust score values, flush interval, display toggles, rank tiers, and storage mode.

Default scoring:
- Player kill: 100 score
- AI kill: 20 score
- Objective: 300 score
- Team kill/death penalties are configurable

Default ranks:
- Private
- Corporal
- Sergeant
- Lieutenant
- Captain
- Major
- Colonel
- General

For advanced setups, storageMode can be changed to "bridge" to use the external TBK Progression Bridge service. This is intended for communities that want central progression across multiple servers. The bridge also includes a web app with leaderboards, player statistics, and match statistics.
