Shape	Transformation	Area shape. Available options: Ellipse Rectangle	IsRectangle	Bool
Size	Transformation	Area size in meters.	size2	Array

Type	Activation	Trigger type, determines special behavior upon activation. Available options: None - No other effects except of those defined by 'On Activation' expression. Guarded by BLUFOR, Guarded by OPFOR, Guarded by Independent - The trigger position becomes a point to be guarded by the given side.
