Area
====

**Inherits:** :ref:`CollisionObject<class_CollisionObject>` **<** :ref:`Spatial<class_Spatial>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

3D area for detection and physics and audio influence.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

3D area that detects :ref:`CollisionObject<class_CollisionObject>` nodes overlapping, entering, or exiting. Can also alter or override local physics parameters (gravity, damping) and route audio to a custom audio bus.

To give the area its shape, add a :ref:`CollisionShape<class_CollisionShape>` or a :ref:`CollisionPolygon<class_CollisionPolygon>` node as a *direct* child (or add multiple such nodes as direct children) of the area.

\ **Warning:** See :ref:`ConcavePolygonShape<class_ConcavePolygonShape>` (also called "trimesh") for a warning about possibly unexpected behavior when using that shape for an area.

\ **Warning:** With a non-uniform scale this node will probably not function as expected. Please make sure to keep its scale uniform (i.e. the same on all axes), and change the size(s) of its collision shape(s) instead.

Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_Area_method_get_overlapping_areas:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Array<class_Array>` **get_overlapping_areas** **(** **)** |const|

Returns a list of intersecting **Area**\ s. The overlapping area's :ref:`CollisionObject.collision_layer<class_CollisionObject_property_collision_layer>` must be part of this area's :ref:`CollisionObject.collision_mask<class_CollisionObject_property_collision_mask>` in order to be detected.

For performance reasons (collisions are all processed at the same time) this list is modified once during the physics step, not immediately after objects are moved. Consider using signals instead.

.. _class_Area_method_get_overlapping_bodies:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Array<class_Array>` **get_overlapping_bodies** **(** **)** |const|

Returns a list of intersecting :ref:`PhysicsBody<class_PhysicsBody>`\ s. The overlapping body's :ref:`CollisionObject.collision_layer<class_CollisionObject_property_collision_layer>` must be part of this area's :ref:`CollisionObject.collision_mask<class_CollisionObject_property_collision_mask>` in order to be detected.

For performance reasons (collisions are all processed at the same time) this list is modified once during the physics step, not immediately after objects are moved. Consider using signals instead.

.. _class_Area_method_overlaps_area:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **overlaps_area** **(** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` area **)** |const|

If ``true``, the given area overlaps the Area.

\ **Note:** The result of this test is not immediate after moving objects. For performance, list of overlaps is updated once per frame and before the physics step. Consider using signals instead.

.. _class_Area_method_overlaps_body:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **overlaps_body** **(** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` body **)** |const|

If ``true``, the given physics body overlaps the Area.

\ **Note:** The result of this test is not immediate after moving objects. For performance, list of overlaps is updated once per frame and before the physics step. Consider using signals instead.

The ``body`` argument can either be a :ref:`PhysicsBody<class_PhysicsBody>` or a :ref:`GridMap<class_GridMap>` instance (while GridMaps are not physics body themselves, they register their tiles with collision shapes as a virtual physics body).

.. |virtual| replace:: :abbr:`virtual (This method should typically be overridden by the user to have any effect.)`
.. |const| replace:: :abbr:`const (This method has no side effects. It doesn't modify any of the instance's member variables.)`
.. |vararg| replace:: :abbr:`vararg (This method accepts any number of arguments after the ones described here.)`
.. |static| replace:: :abbr:`static (This method doesn't need an instance to be called, so it can be called directly using the class name.)`
