Activating the Script Editor
Activating the script editor is not necessary for Missile Defense Mosquito. It will mark your game as ***modified***.
With the script editor activated, technical information is provided as well as normal information. This can be confusing. It is possible to run other unsigned scripts without starting the script editor. This requires a change in the script's boot file. This will mark your game as ***modified*** as well.
Installation
Simply extract the Zip into the X3TC directory like you did with the former version. Newer files should overwrite older ones. Main script files will reside in ".\scripts"- and ".\t\"-folder, all other files are for maintenance and uninstalling only.
Deinstallation
Copy file setup.plugin.missile.def.pck from "\scripts.uninstall\" in your X3TC folder to "\scripts". Run TC and load a saved game. Uninstallation is automatically started and finished when a message is sent to the logbook. Uninstallation takes 10 to 20 seconds from when the game was loaded. Save your game.
Run "Delete all Missile Defense Mosquito Scripts.bat" found in the "\scripts.delete" folder in your TC directory. This will delete the script's files.
Important: Never just delete scripts; your savegame will look for them.
Updating to a newer version
Simply re-extract the Zip into the X3TC directory. Simply unzip into your X3TC directory. There are files in "\scripts" and "\t", as well as other folders. These other files are used for maintenance and uninstalling. You may overwrite older files.
To remove obsolete or unused files, run "Delete old Missile Defense Mosquito Scripts.bat", found in "\scripts.delete", before extracting the new zip file. This is not necessary, but will keep your script folders neater.
Ingame, nothing needs restarting. All ships and stations should run the new scripts automatically, any ships set to notify you when orders are complete will send you a message. The old script is stopped before the new script is started, and the message can be ignored.

Mosquito missiles and Fight Command Software MK1 and MK2 can be found at equipment docks of most races.

The software is started with the command "Missile Defense Mosquito" in the Additional Ship Commands menu. The software now watches for enemy missiles and drones and fires Mosquitoes at them. Remove the command from the Additional Ship Command menu to stop it, the command also stops if there are no mosquito missiles present or they have all been used.
The command "Missile Defense Mosquito Convoy", also in the Additonal Ship Command menu, allows one ship to protect itself and it's followers. This requires the following ships be using the navigation command "follow..." or fight command "Protect..."
