[implemented] Instance Minimum Level

There is already a function "DoesCurrentZoneAllowScalingByLevel()", which identifies whether a certain instance scales to the player or group leader level; examples of this include Main Quest instances, Fighters/Mages Guild instances, Group Dungeons, Stirk, and Thizzrini Arena.

According to the related patch notes (1.5.2, see copy below), instances do not scale below the level they are introduced. Please can we have a function, let's call it
Lua Code:
  1. GetCurrentZoneMinLevel()
which returns this level that the instances do not scale below? Thanks!

For example, when inside Thizzrini Arena, this function would return 42. When in Spindleclutch, the function would return 10 (I think).

Solo Scaling
  • Solo instances will now scale to your level. This means when you play through the Main Story, Fighters Guild, Mages Guild and other solo content, it will remain a challenge and you can do it on your own time. Below are some things to note about solo scaling:
  • Solo instances do not scale below the level they are introduced. For example, Thizzrini Arena begins scaling from level 42.

This is done internally.

Meaning that there is no way to get the value out? Ah well, I don't suppose you could provide a list of the scaling zones and their min levels then? Thanks for the reply!

Meaning we added the function internally. It will be in the next incremental to PTS I think.

Hey Chip,

is there also something to get the maximum group size of a dungeon?
A function like
Code:
GetInstanceMaxGroupSize()
would be very nice!

Thanks

Hey Chip, if you're still reading this thread, did the function go in with Thieves Guild? If so, what's the call? GetCurrentZoneMinLevel() doesn't seem to do anything. Thanks!
