Details[]

  • 4.1 added a new argument called "hidden", as the third argument, between "state" and "text" [1]
  • 2.1 added a new argument called uiType to GetWorldStateUIInfo, because this was added as the first argument you will have to update any code that uses this function.
    • uiType appears to be 0 for the first valid index and 1 for every other valid index (valid indexes being 1 to GetNumWorldStateUI())
  • In The Burning Crusade this is used for more then just PvP, you can find it used for some instances like Black Morass.
