Dev Question: What character encoding is used in LUA environments for DCS?

[RvEYoda]

Quick question.

 

Since lua has no widechar support and uses just bytestrings. Can we assume DCS always outputs strings in lua environments as utf8? (e.g. Export.lua)

 

Thanks..

If anyone is interested, all our tests so far suggest dcs DOES encode strings in Export.lua environment with utf8 :). We exported some cyrillic stuff, sent as json and it was successfully read on the receiving end!
