Patch 3.2.0/API changes

Last wiki revision 2020-09-04

  • The default UI now contains versions of some popular (I may be biassed) tools for UI developers - /dump, /eventtrace, /framestack, and /reload
  • updated -- added two bools to return: instanceIDMostSig, isRaid
  • updated -- Added Bool isPreviousInstance to return (part of the extend instance stuff)
  • removed -- Replaced by GetQuestDifficultyColor(level)
  • new -- exact replacement for GetDifficutlyColor(level)

Not sure of where these arrays live (global? FrameUI? QuestUI?), but this very subtle change broke several addons, so it's being included here

  • removed "QuestDifficultyColor" array -- Replaced by "QuestDifficultyColors" array
  • new "QuestDifficultyColors"array -- exact replacement for "QuestDifficultyColor" array
  • updated or removed -- (not 100% sure, but believed to have been removed)
