it seems all that code you had published cozmo has been changed since than.

anyways i dug out the stuff i needed from the lua files and i got artillery showers put together from single shots working now in a fine random area around the markers. Pitty that they need to be player controlled so the allies may get some strange kill values without fighting the units, or experience when the artillery gives the killshot 

I hope it works to display the messages with the rule_addoneshot command. That could do the trick but i still have to find the command for displaying any warning messages in vCoH.

As soon as im finished with this and have it working ill publish the code here, maybe someone could allready clean up the thread a bit so it stays/becomes a helpfull encyclopedia for SCAR commands.

Working fine!

And here it is, if someones interested in checking it out:

 - Random artillery around 4 scar markers in a set intervall (firing 5 single howitzer shells on each)

 - Warning message displayed before the fire comes in.

 - MiniMap combat ping along with the warning on the scar marker positions (-> center of the barraged area)

[warning text is still a workaround though, as i didnt implement the actual EiR warnings, but it works the same way just another command]
