[question] WoW API LoS

[bjorno43]

Is there some API / lua code that could possible check if my current target is in Line of Sight or not without having to cast first? Been searching for something that could do this for hours now but just couldn't find anything telling me it's possible or not.

On a side note: I was a bit surprised that there isn't a separate section on Ownedcore for addon development :P

World::Intersect would be what you're looking for, but that isn't lua...

Well it seems LoS works serverside. The client simply doesn't have the information (or it's not accessable) untill some serverside event occurs (like a spellcast). So I think it's impossible with a regular addon.

edit:

API UnitInRange
Returns 1 if the unit is in range (40yds) and "Line of Sight" of most helpful spells, nil otherwise.

I tried this, but it seems to fail at the Line of Sight part. When my target stays in range but walks out of line of sight, it still returns 1
