== Details == InstanceMapIDs are separate from [[MapID]]s, where instead MapIDs are more like IDs of zones within an instance. InstanceMapIDs are typically thought of as a special instance map id for a dungeon or raid. However, the continents themselves are treated as instances, and also have unique instance map IDs. [[API GetChallengeModeMapTimes|GetChallengeModeMapTimes]](InstanceMapID) uses the InstanceMapID. The name of the instance may be different than the outer zone that covers that instance, and the map name returned by GetInstanceInfo() is not necessarily the same as the name returned by GetRealZoneText() or GetMapNameByID(). When denoted below, Zone Name is the normal map display name, and Instance Name is the name returned by GetInstanceInfo(). If you want to help fill in this list, you can go into an instance and use the command: /run local t = {GetInstanceInfo()}; print(t[1], "=", t[8]) Which will show just the real instance name, and the InstanceMapID or use /dump GetInstanceInfo() Which will show all of the instance details. Slot [8] is the [[InstanceMapID]], which can be added to the table below. or use <pre class="wrap"> /run local mid,t = GetCurrentMapAreaID(), {GetInstanceInfo()}; print(t[8], t[1], mid, GetMapNameByID(mid), GetZoneText().."/"..GetRealZoneText()) </pre> Which will show: InstanceMapID, Instance Name, MapID, Map Name, Zone Name / Real Zone Name
