areasize
Size of the area in open turfs, only calculated for indoors areas.
atmosalm
Whether there is an atmos alarm in this area
beauty
Beauty average per open turf in the area
beauty_threshold
If a room is too big it doesn't have beauty.
map_generator
This datum, if set, allows terrain generation behavior to be ran on Initialize()
minimap_color
WS Addition - Color on minimaps, if it's null (which is default) it makes one at random.
mood_bonus

requires_power
Will objects this area be needing power?
totalbeauty
All beauty in this area combined, only includes indoor area.
Proc Details
AllowDrop
Causes a runtime error
Destroy
Destroy an area and clean it up
Removes the area from GLOB.areas_by_type and also stops it processing on SSobj
This is despite the fact that no code appears to put it on SSobj, but who am I to argue with old coders
Entered
Call back when an atom enters an area
Sends signals COMSIG_AREA_ENTERED and COMSIG_ENTER_AREA (to the atom)
If the area has ambience, then it plays some ambience music to the ambience channel
Exited
Called when an atom exits an area
Sends signals COMSIG_AREA_EXITED and COMSIG_EXIT_AREA (to the atom)
Initialize
Initalize this area
intializes the dynamic area lighting and also registers the area with the z level via reg_in_areas_in_z
returns INITIALIZE_HINT_LATELOAD
LateInitialize
Sets machine power levels in the area
ModifyFiredoors
Try to close all the firedoors in the area
New
Called when an area loads
Adds the item to the GLOB.areas_by_type list based on area type
PlaceOnTopReact
A hook so areas can modify the incoming args (of what??)
addStaticPower
Add a static amount of power load to an area
Possible channels *AREA_USAGE_STATIC_EQUIP *AREA_USAGE_STATIC_LIGHT *AREA_USAGE_STATIC_ENVIRON
atmosalert
Generate an atmospheric alert for this area
Sends to all ai players, alert consoles, drones and alarm monitor programs in the world
burglaralert

signal.
poweralert

Im not sure what the heck this does, somethign to do with weather being able to set icon states on areas?? where the heck would that even display?
