Returns true if the action has a numeric range requirement.

local hasRange = ActionHasRange(slotID)

Parameters

Arguments

• slotID (number) - The slot ID to test

Returns

• hasRange (boolean) - True if the specified action has a numeric range requirement

Example

/script if ActionHasRange(1) then if IsActionInRange(1) then ChatFrame1:AddMessage("Action 1 is in range!"); end end

Result

"Action 1 is in range!"

The above message will be printed if the action in slot 1 has a numeric range requirement and you are within range of the target (or if there is no target; see IsActionInRange).

Details

This function returns true if the action in the specified slot ID has a numeric range requirement as shown in the action's tooltip, e.g. Fire Blast has a numeric range of 20 yards. For actions like Attack which have no numeric range requirement in their tooltip (even though they only work within a certain range), this function will return false.
