Returns the mana points of the specified unit. DEPRECATED - As of 3.0, UnitPower is the preferred method of obtaining unit power.
- Usage
local mana = UnitMana("unit");
- Arguments
- unit
- String - The UnitId of the unit whose MP should be returned
- Returns
- mana
- Number - the unit's current mana points
- Details
- There's nothing special about this really. There is, however, one interesting anomally: While UnitHealth will return percentage values for "target" and "mouseover", this one seems to return the actual mana points for all possible targets.
- This is also the mechanism for getting a unit's rage or energy, since there were no corresponding UnitEnergy or UnitRage functions. You can use UnitPowerType to figure out whether what you're getting is Rage, Energy, or actual Mana.
