How do I figure out what size raid group I am in?

[andr0id]

Alright, I'm in a forming raid group and there GetNumRaidMembers() returns 7.

How do I know if that's 7/10, 7/25 or even possibly 7/40?

I see no way to get the M part of n/M where n is how many members are now present, but M is what "Raid Difficulty" is set to under the leaders drop down menu.

Surely this should be easy, but I'm missing it completely.

Thanks for any help,
Andy

GetInstanceInfo

GetInstanceInfo will only work if you're already inside the target instance.

To get the currently selected raid difficulty before you enter the instance, use GetRaidDifficulty (return values match passable parameters for SetRaidDifficulty). You may also wish to check whether you are in a battleground or outdoor combat zone (usually treated as a 40-player raid), a battleground, etc. Here is the relevant code from Grid that determines which group type the player is currently in:

	local function GetPartyState()
		local _, instance_type = IsInInstance()

		if instance_type == "arena" then
			return "arena"
		end

		if instance_type == "pvp" then
			return "bg"
		end

		if GetNumRaidMembers() > 0 then
			if instance_type == "none" and GetZonePVPInfo() == "combat" then
				return "bg"
			end
			if instance_type == "raid" then
				local _, _, _, _, max_players = GetInstanceInfo()
				return max_players > 10 and "raid_25" or "raid_10"
			else
				local raid_difficulty = GetRaidDifficulty()
				return (raid_difficulty == 2 or raid_difficulty == 4) and "raid_25" or "raid_10"
			end
		end

		if GetNumPartyMembers() > 0 then
			return "party"
		end

		return "solo"
	end

This function is called in response to the following events:

• PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD
• PARTY_MEMBERS_CHANGED
• RAID_ROSTER_UPDATE
• UNIT_NAME_UPDATE
• UNIT_PET
• UNIT_PORTRAIT_UPDATE
• ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA

Thank you, I will give that a try.
