SCAR Overview

What is SCAR?

SCAR (short for “Scripting At Relic”) is a programming language based on LUA.

Its used in many games from Relic such as Homeworld, Company of Heroes, Dawn of War, Age of Empires IV and more.

SCAR is the result of integrating LUA into the relevant game combined with a number of custom functions that allow for easy modification of game objects and parameters.

This means if you are familiar with how to script in LUA, you also know how to script in games that use LUA or SCAR. This would allow you to spawn and command units, set objectives, destroy buildings, and a variety of other core functions.

DoW:II's SCAR documentation is largely copied from Company of Heroes as they have a lot of overlap, but some things that worked in COH may not apply to DoW:II. Guides currently include a lot of COH related guides as they are more or less still applicable.
