General purpose area detection and influence for 3D physics.
</brief_description>
<description>
General purpose area detection for 3D physics. Areas can be used for detection of objects that enter/exit them, as well as overriding space parameters (changing gravity, damping, etc). For this, use any space override different from AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_DISABLE and point gravity at the center of mass.

<description>
Set the rate at which objects stop spinning in this area, if there are not any other forces making it spin. The value is a fraction of its current speed, lost per second. Thus, a value of 1.0 should mean stopping immediately, and 0.0 means the object never stops.
In practice, as the fraction of speed lost gets smaller with each frame, a value of 1.0 does not mean the object will stop in exactly one second. Only when the physics calculations are done at 1 frame per second, it does stop in a second.

<description>
Set the physics layers this area is in.
Collidable objects can exist in any of 32 different layers. These layers are not visual, but more of a tagging system instead. A collidable can use these layers/tags to select with which objects it can collide, using [method set_collision_mask].
A contact is detected if object A is in any of the layers that object B scans, or object B is in any layer scanned by object A.

Set the rate at which objects stop moving in this area, if there are not any other forces moving it. The value is a fraction of its current speed, lost per second. Thus, a value of 1.0 should mean stopping immediately, and 0.0 means the object never stops.

<method name="set_priority">
<return type="void">
</return>
<argument index="0" name="priority" type="float">
</argument>
<description>
Set the order in which the area is processed. Greater values mean the area gets processed first. This is useful for areas which have a space override different from AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_DISABLED or AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_COMBINE, as they replace values, and are thus order-dependent.
Areas with the same priority value get evaluated in an unpredictable order, and should be differentiated if evaluation order is to be important.

<description>
Set the space override mode. This mode controls how an area affects gravity and damp.
AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_DISABLED: This area does not affect gravity/damp. These are generally areas that exist only to detect collisions, and objects entering or exiting them.
AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_COMBINE: This area adds its gravity/damp values to whatever has been calculated so far. This way, many overlapping areas can combine their physics to make interesting effects.
AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_COMBINE_REPLACE: This area adds its gravity/damp values to whatever has been calculated so far. Then stops taking into account the rest of the areas, even the default one.
AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_REPLACE: This area replaces any gravity/damp, even the default one, and stops taking into account the rest of the areas.
AREA_SPACE_OVERRIDE_REPLACE_COMBINE: This area replaces any gravity/damp calculated so far, but keeps calculating the rest of the areas, down to the default one.
