***********************************************************************************************
IN CASE OF ERRORS WITH THE MIST AND MOOSE SCRIPTING FILES DO THE FOLLOWING!
***********************************************************************************************

Step 1: Locate the `MissionScripting.lua` file
Navigate to the following folder:
\DCS Installation Folder\Scripts\
Find the file named `MissionScripting.lua`.

Step 2: Backup the Original File (Optional but Recommended)
Copy the `MissionScripting.lua` file to a safe location to create a backup.

Step 3: Edit the `MissionScripting.lua` File
Open the `MissionScripting.lua` file in a text editor like Notepad or Notepad++.
Find the following lines near the bottom of the file:

_G['require'] = nil
_G['loadlib'] = nil
_G['package'] = nil

Comment out these lines by adding `--` at the beginning of each line, so they look like this:

-- _G['require'] = nil
-- _G['loadlib'] = nil
-- _G['package'] = nil

Step 4: Save the Edited File
Save the file after making the changes.

Step 5: Verify the Changes
Reopen the `MissionScripting.lua` file to ensure the changes were saved correctly.
The file should now look like this:

Initialization script for the Mission lua Environment (SSE)

dofile('Scripts/ScriptingSystem.lua')

Sanitize Mission Scripting environment
This makes unavailable some unsecure functions.
Mission downloaded fr om server to client may contain potentialy harmful lua code that may use these functions.
You can remove the code below and make availble these functions at your own risk.

local function sanitizeModule(name)
    _G[name] = nil
    package.loaded[name] = nil
end

do
    sanitizeModule('os')
    sanitizeModule('io')
    sanitizeModule('lfs')
    -- _G['require'] = nil
    -- _G['loadlib'] = nil
    -- _G['package'] = nil
end

Step 6: Launch DCS
Start DCS to ensure it runs correctly with the modified file.

Important Note:
The `MissionScripting.lua` file will revert to its default state after every DCS update.
You will need to redo these steps after each update if you wish to keep these changes.
