Mikuno Automated updating of API pages at this location, to reflect patch changes, has ceased from 10.1.7 onwards.

Returns an integer loot type for a given loot slot. 

slotType = GetLootSlotType(slotIndex)

Arguments

slotIndex
number - Position in loot window to query, from 1 - GetNumLootItems().

Returns

slotType
number - Type ID indicating slot content type:
  • 0: LOOT_SLOT_NONE / Enum.LootSlotType.None - No contents
  • 1: LOOT_SLOT_ITEM / Enum.LootSlotType.Item - A regular item
  • 2: LOOT_SLOT_MONEY / Enum.LootSlotType.Money - Gold/silver/copper coin
  • 3: LOOT_SLOT_CURRENCY / Enum.LootSlotType.Currency - Other currency amount, such as [Valor Points]

As of 10.0.0.46455 the constants LOOT_SLOT_NONE, LOOT_SLOT_ITEM, LOOT_SLOT_MONEY, LOOT_SLOT_CURRENCY are no longer defined. A new enumerator table is defined (Enum.LootSlotType) with the same values.

Example

The following snippet takes all items from the open loot window, leaving other loot types: 

for slot = 1, GetNumLootItems() do
 if GetLootSlotType(slot) == Enum.LootSlotType.Item then
  LootSlot(slot);
 end
end
