Changing a unit's rank using either setUnitRank or setRank will also REPLACE their current rating dependent on their new rank (colonels have a rating of 7500 etc). That is to say REPLACE, not add to: the unit's old rating will disappear with the rank change.

In Arma 3, if the rank is not spelled correctly or the string is empty, it will default to Private. This command is not case sensitive. For Arma 3 the rating set by this command is as follows. (PRIVATE: 0) (CORPORAL: 50) (SERGEANT: 150) (LIEUTENANT: 250) (CAPTAIN: 350) (MAJOR: 500) (COLONEL: 750) The rating listed here will be present on base type respawn.

In Arma 3 (v1.94), unit's rating is reset to zero. Also, all ranks start with a rating of zero.
