It would make a newbie's life 10x better and maybe everyone elses if you info on something like a "Trackign Disruptor" if somewhere the 'scripts' that it can use can be linked.

Its very hard trying to fit ships or looking at items when you do not know what the other 50% of the module is cause it has a totally different name.

Frankly I don't see much point in the scripts. They're dirt-cheap and once you have one of each, you don't need any more until you lose your ship. I'm sure it was done originally so that they could just treat them as ammunition, but I should think things have changed enough now that you should just be able to have a "mode" switch to move your disruptor between "Optimal range" "tracking speed" and "balanced" embedded in the context menu.

Scripts add an unnecessary layer of complexity for new players to learn and removing them in favor of a mode selection has no impact on the game.

scripts are fine.... they are more complex but most newbies won't even need them.. unless they are fitting some EW on their rifter
