API GetTrackingInfo
Last wiki revision 2022-08-03
Returns tracking info by index. name, texture, active, category, nested = GetTrackingInfo(id)
- id: - tracking type index, ascending from 1 to GetNumTrackingTypes.
- name: - Track name.
- texture: - fileID for the Track texture.
- active: - If the track is active, it will return 1 but otherwise nil.
- category: - Track category, returns "spell" if the tracking method is a spell in the spellbook or "other" if it's a static tracking method.
- nested: - Nesting level, returns -1 for items at the root level, TOWNSFOLK for items in the Townsfolk dropdown, and HUNTER_TRACKING for Hunter tracking spells.
Gathers information for the first option on the tracking list and lists it in the default chatframe: local name, texture, active, category = GetTrackingInfo(1); DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(name.." ("..category..")");
Lists all tracking methods, name and category in the default chatframe: local count = GetNumTrackingTypes; for i=1,count do local name, texture, active, category = GetTrackingInfo(i); DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(name.." ("..category..")"); end
- If the player has tracking spells, those will only be accessible to this function after the player's spellbook has been loaded from the server: consider waiting for before querying.
