A infomation station for whoever that are trying to achieve medals.
Will fill it up properly with abit more time
NOTD Aftermath Medal & Ranks Misc.

Might be difficult for some people to understand since its not a newbie friendly guide
The following is to answer the major doubts regarding how the code awards medal point gain.
Unless Ace MESSED with how medal gain works, BETA8 should be totally the same as 1.5c. Hi Ace, want to confirm ?
The only thing wrong with the way that the service medals are calculated in the calculator is deaths. [b]Nowhere in the code does it state how many people must be alive for service medals and medal of honor to be awarded. In the code it makes reference to ServiceMedalBoolean, however it never really sets or gets when medals are awarded. Everyone assumes that players must be alive for service medals, but not everyone needs to be alive. The number of players that must be living are unknown to me and until I am giving a reasonable code-related explanation as to how the ServiceMedalBooleans are calculated my calculator cannot factor player death.
Initialization A
if udg_Players>=udg_ServicePlayerRequirement then
How MANY people required to unlock service medals points
Generic Actions function
At the start of wave X, if remaining players equals to initial players,
udg_ServiceMedalBoolean[X] will be set to true
Everyone NEEDS to be alive.
All medals have a chance to decay if you do not meet the requirements regardless of Article 15 or not. Lets say you have 5 Navy Cross points and you save a game where you did not meet the Navy Cross requirements, whether you got an Art 15 or not you have a chance to lose a medal point for Navy Cross.
Medal Section
if udg_Article15[id]==false and udg_Mode==1 and udg_InitialPlayers>1 then
If check fails, all awarding and decay of points will fail, which implies,
If you get Art15, you WOULD NOT get decay of any medal points.
Needless to say if you do not know exactly how medals are granted, ask someone who absolutely knows because most people only have speculations or bullshit assumptions. Don't listen to anyone but - or - or - about medal requirements because nobody else has access to the source code and therefore can only be guessing.
1.5c is -OPEN SOURCE.-
Conclusion : The PDF guide is correct, although the source code was not shared. Till Ace confirm whether he edited the medal requirementst, I will stop the explanation here to prevent more confusion.
