==Overview==
Scottrick is currently a [[Lieutenant Commander (TIE Corps)|LCM]] of [[Lambda Squadron]] aboard the [[Hammer|ISD Hammer]].

==Biography==
Scottrick had an unusual childhood. Born on Carrida II, his mother and father were both military instructors at the elite stormtrooper academy. Since there were very few other children on the planet, his childhood was filled with time spent studying military strategy and learning how to operate vehicles and spacecraft. Friends of the family noted his enthusiasm for spaceflight and his eagerness to serve the Empire at an early age.

While acknowledging the advantages and superiority of the newer TIE craft such as the TIE Defender and the Missile Boat, he has always favored the classic TIE Fighter. Preferring it's fast and straightforward design, Scottrick has remarked [sic] "Piloting a TIE Fighter is the closest a mortal can get to flying. There's nothing between you and open space."

==TIE Corps==
Because serving the Empire was always in the forefront of his mind, the only real question was how. While his parents initially pushed for him to follow in their footsteps, when they realized his love for spacecraft and saw his skill inside the cockpit, the choice was obvious. His acceptance into the TIE Corps was celebrated and he has never looked back.

==History==
Scottrick began his service in [[Raven Squadron]]. Due to it's small size, Raven Squadron was decommissioned shortly after [[Squadron ReMobilization|ReMob 5]] and Scottrick requested transfer to Lambda Squadron. The request was granted.

TIE Fighter Workshop Battle Bitmap

2023-07-10T23:49:31Z

Scottrick: Updated the palette links to valid links.

With TIE Fighter Workshop, you are able to specify a custom Battle Bitmap that is displayed on the tour of duty screen.

==Creating a custom battle bitmap for TIE Fighter Collector's CD-ROM==
The battle bitmap must be an image that is 91x75 pixels in size. The bitmap must use the tourdesk palette, which will limit the available colors.

It is important to note that the image specified is not square, but in game the image appears square. This is because TIE Fighter uses [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_13h Mode 13h] when drawing on the screen. The end result is that the pixel aspect ratio is 1:1.2 in 320x200 mode, and this is something you may want to take into account when creating your custom battle bitmap.

====Step by Step with GIMP====
# Install [https://www.gimp.org GIMP].
# Download the GIMP palette [https://tac.emperorshammer.org/downloads/TIE/tourdesk.gpl tourdesk.gpl].
# Create a new image of size 91x75.
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_1.jpg]]
# Open the "Palettes" dialog by going to the "Windows" menu, choosing "Dockable Dialogs", and then choosing "Palettes".
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_2.jpg]]
# Right click inside the "Palettes" window and select "Import Palette...".
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_3.jpg]]
# Choose "Palette file", select tourdesk.gpl, and select "Import".
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_4.jpg]]
# Create a custom image for your TIE Fighter battle!
# When you are finished, change the image to use the "Indexed..." color mode.
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_5.jpg]]
# Choose "Use custom palette" and select tourdesk.gpl. Make sure the "Remove unused and duplicate colors from colormap" is '''NOT''' checked and then click Convert. Your image will update to only use colors in the tourdesk.gpl color palette.
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_6.jpg]]
# Open the "File" menu and select "Export As..."
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_7.jpg]]
# Name the file, being sure to add the suffix '''.BMP''' to the filename so it saves as a bitmap, and click "Export".
# In the "Export Image as BMP" dialog that appears, expand the "Compatibility Options", check the "Do not write color space information" checkbox, and click "Export".
#: [[Image:Battle_bitmap_8.jpg]]
# Now in TIE Fighter Workshop, you can select your new BMP for the Battle Map image!

====NeoPaint====
It is also possible to create a valid BMP with NeoPaint. You will need [https://tac.emperorshammer.org/downloads/TIE/TOURDESK.PAL TOURDESK.PAL].

TIE Fighter Workshop (TFW) is a program used to develop custom TIE Fighter battles and missions. There is an Imperial University course which teaches the basics of using TIE Fighter Workshop [https://tc.emperorshammer.org/university.php?id=43 here] and is highly recommended.

The help functionality in the TFW application no longer functions with modern versions of Windows. Documentation can now be found on the wiki page [[TIE Fighter Workshop Help Manual]].

==Overview==
Scottrick is currently a [[Lieutenant Commander (TIE Corps)|LCM]] of [[Raven Squadron]] aboard the [[Challenge|ISD Challenge]].

==Biography==
Scottrick had an unusual childhood. Born on Carrida II, his mother and father were both military instructors at the elite stormtrooper academy. Since there were very few other children on the planet, his childhood was filled with time spent studying military strategy and learning how to operate vehicles and spacecraft. Friends of the family noted his enthusiasm for spaceflight and his eagerness to serve the Empire at an early age.

While acknowledging the advantages and superiority of the newer TIE craft such as the TIE Defender and the Missile Boat, he has always favored the classic TIE Fighter. Preferring it's fast and straightforward design, Scottrick has remarked [sic] "Flying a TIE Fighter is the closest a mortal can get to flying. There's nothing between you and open space."

==TIE Corps==
Because serving the Empire was always in the forefront of his mind, the only real question was how. While his parents initially pushed for him to follow in their footsteps, when they realized his love for spacecraft and saw his skill inside the cockpit, the choice was obvious. His acceptance into the TIE Corps was celebrated and he has never looked back.

Scoring in TIE Fighter

2022-12-16T01:43:33Z

Scottrick: Fixed incorrect secret order of the empire rank name.

'''Summary'''

This article explains how mission scores are calculated in [[Gaming and Activities#Space Simulators|''TIE Fighter'']].

==Points for Goal Completion==

===Primary Goals===
All Primary Goals must be completed to earn these points.
{|
! scope="col" style="width: 5rem; text-align: left;" | Easy
! scope="col" style="width: 5rem; text-align: left;" | Medium
! scope="col" style="width: 5rem; text-align: left;" | Hard
|-
| 2500
| 5000
| 7500
|}

===Secondary Goals===
All Secondary Goals must be completed to earn these points.
{|
! scope="col" style="width: 5rem; text-align: left;" | Easy
! scope="col" style="width: 5rem; text-align: left;" | Medium
! scope="col" style="width: 5rem; text-align: left;" | Hard
|-
| 2500
| 5000
| 7500
|}

===Bonus Goals===

Each individual Bonus Goal has its own point value set by the mission creator. Unlike Primary and Secondary Goals, not all Bonus Goals have to be completed in order to earn points for completing Bonus Goals.

===Additional Points===

If the mission was flown with collisions on, add 250 points as well as an additional 12.5% bonus to all points earned for units destroyed or captured.

Points for kills or captures are reduced by 25% on Easy and increased by 25% on Hard.

If invulnerability is turned on, or unlimited ammo is turned on at any time during a mission, your score is reduced by 90%. The Empire is tough on cheaters!

==Points for Weapons Fire==

Each laser fired causes the player's score to be reduced by one point. This is per laser, not per pull of the trigger. For example, a TIE Defender firing four lasers at once would deduct four points. Ion cannon blasts do not deduct any points.

Each warhead fired causes the players score to be reduce by 50 points. As with lasers, if you fire two warheads at the same time, your score would be reduced by 100 points.

Each laser hit adds three points to the player's score. Ion cannon blast hits do not add any points.

Each warhead hit adds 100 points to the player's score.

==Points for Destroying Units (Non-Friendly)==

The player's craft must make the final hit in order for these points to be awarded. There are no partial points for assists.

==Points for Captured Units==

Capturing a unit awards five times the number of points that destroying the unit would have. Unlike kills, the player's craft does not have to perform the capture operation.

==Other Point Deductions==
{|
| scope="col" style="width: 15rem;" | Losing your spacecraft
| -5,000
|-
| Destroying friendly craft
| -10,000
|-
| Successfully calling for reinforcements
| -5,000 (no points are deducted if the mission has no reinforcement units)
|-
| Losing friendly craft
| 0 (no points are deducted when friendly craft are destroyed or captured)
|}

==Achieving In-game Ranks==

Based on how many points the player has accrued, the game will assign them a rank in the '''Imperial Navy'''.

{|
! scope="col" style="width: 10rem; text-align: left;" | Rank

|-
