You have to change some stuff in basic cfg and commander as well.

Thanks, but the info there doesn't answer my basic question. I'm already working on alterations to the basic.cfg via commander to make the awarding of medals/promotions more historically accurate and appropriate to my style of play, however in order to do that effectively I'd like to know exactly how the game is doing it now.

Either the lines

MedalScore0=3000;2 class, SCORE
MedalScore1=7000;1 class, SCORE
(etc.)

don't mean what I think they mean (i.e., I finish a patrol, the game tells me my renown is over the "score" required for a particular medal, I get the medal), or else the renown the game tells me I have at the end of a patrol is different from the amount being used to award medals and there is some other factor in how "MedalScoreX" is calculated that I am not aware of.

THAT is what I'm trying to figure out, not how to edit the basic.cfg to make it harder to get them. I already know how to do that.
