UI Lua API import (WAR 1.4.8)

New page

{{LuaApi|group=Pregame}}
Returns how many pages of character slots each realm has on the character select screen.

<pre>
orderNumPages, destructionNumPages = PregameGetCharacterSelectNumPages()
</pre>

== Arguments ==
None.

== Returns ==
;orderNumPages : <code>number</code> – Number of pages for Order.
;destructionNumPages : <code>number</code> – Number of pages for Destruction.

== Details ==
* The names and order of the two values are the ones the stock UI uses.
* The client counts the pages from the character slot data it has for each realm.
* Outside the pregame state, or before the character select screen is set up, the function returns nothing.

== Errors ==
None.

== Example ==
From <code>interfacecore/source/characterselectwindow.lua</code>:
<pre>
-- Update the character page changer
local orderNumPages, destructionNumPages = PregameGetCharacterSelectNumPages()
local bNeedsPageChanger = ( orderNumPages + destructionNumPages > 1 )
</pre>
