edited for legibility (it's not very easy to read 1pt):
why not just include it in the mod so people are not confused?!?
Most of the older mods were released before BCUT, the predecessor, BCMP, can be a pain to use, so a lot of the old modders left it up to the user to configure the plugin the way they like it. Since the introduction of BCSMC/BCUT, it's become much easier, so more newer mods include them. Unfortunately, it would be very difficult for someone to go through and make plugins for the hundreds of ships that don't come with one, so don't expect these to be fixed.
