btw, note the use of %s and %d in the menu file for "string" and "digit" variables. Some of the files will use the "greater than" and "less than" signs to hold modifiers, the way this site uses the brackets, such that <b> and </b> turns "bold" on and off. In the case of this area of the game, the text definition in the game also makes the text "red" in color...
who woulda thought that?
it never dawned on me to look for Rank information in a file named RANKS.UPC.
There must have been a moment of clarity in Bulgaria when then designed this.

thank you!
