	; Number ~~interfacerow: The LFG interface has 3 rows (You can look for 3 things), this number indicates which one~~ (1 to 3)		; slot: Number - Slot index (1 to 3); there are three LFG slots, so you can look for groups for three different destinations.

	; ~~Number~~ destination: ~~The submenu of valid choices for that missiontype and~~ the ~~characters level, if~~ type ~~is 3 and the character is level 70 then 6~~ would be ~~Karazhan~~		; destination: Number - Destination index within the mission type -- this would be the specific zone or instance index acquired from {{api\|GetLFGTypeEntries}}(missiontype).

	~~: Nothing~~		local slot, mtype, destination = 1,3,2;
