API:SetOpenPartyWorldInterests

UI Lua API · Social functions
Version: WAR 1.4.8

Registers the player's party in the world-wide open party list with a tier and interests.

SetOpenPartyWorldInterests(tier, interest, specificInterest1, specificInterest2, specificInterest3, specificInterest4)

Arguments

tier: number – Tier, 1–4.
interest: number – A GameData.OpenPartyInterest value.
specificInterest1 … specificInterest4: number – Specific interests: zone, scenario or dungeon ids, depending on interest.

Returns

Nothing.

Details

Nothing is sent when tier is outside 1–4, or when the connection is not ready.
tier and interest are sent as 8-bit values, the four specific interests as 32-bit values.
This function sends the same message as SendOpenPartyWorldSearch, with a different command value: here it sets the party's interests.
UnsetOpenPartyWorldInterests removes the party from the world list again.
The function needs at least six arguments and only reads the last six.

Errors

None besides the generic Invalid Parameters message when an argument is not a number.

Example

From default/ea_openpartywindow/source/openpartywindowtabworld.lua:

local tier, interest, specificInterest1, specificInterest2, specificInterest3, specificInterest4 = GetCurrentSelections()
SetOpenPartyWorldInterests( tier, interest, specificInterest1, specificInterest2, specificInterest3, specificInterest4 )

The "searchable" check box switches between the two calls, from the same file:

if( ButtonGetPressedFlag( PARENT_WINDOW.."SearchableCheckButton" ) )
then
    UnsetOpenPartyWorldInterests()
else
    if( LastInterestsSet.tier > 0 )
    then
        SetOpenPartyWorldInterests(
            LastInterestsSet.tier,
            LastInterestsSet.interest,
            ...
