Code:
area
  house
    var
      owner = "None"
      hnum = 0
      price = 50000
      guest[]
    house_1
      hnum = 1
    house_2
      hnum = 2
      price = 25000

var/housearea = list ()
world/Del()
  ..()
  for(var/area/house/h in world)
    if(istype(h,/area/house/))  
      housearea.Add(h)
  F["housearea"] << housearea

Problem description:
I want to save and load an areas variables, and this is all I could think of but it does not work. I already have a system to save the objects in the area so that is not what I am trying to do. I am trying to save all the areas of type house and their variables.
Any ideas?

I have been thinking it over and maybe instead of saving the area just save the indivisual variables but I think that would lead to the same issue.

world/
    New()
        ..()
        for(var/area/house/a in world)
            var/savefile/F = new("houses/house_[a.hnum].sav")
            F["owner"] >> a.owner
            F["guests"] >> a.guest
            F["price"] >> a.price
        return ..()

    Del()
        for(var/area/house/a in world)
            var/savefile/F = new("houses/house_[a.hnum].sav")
            F["owner"] << a.owner
            F["guests"] << a.guest
            F["price"] << a.price
        return ..()

Alright well I am now trying this method, but even though the areas vars are defined, it is saving them as null.

I think you should be able to save the objects and their vars jsut by saying this :
F["Houses"]<< a

But also check to see if the file even exists before trying to load.

That works for the objects, but i tried that for the areas themselves and it didnt work. It saved them as null.

I think i figured it out!
Here is the code I used if anyone wants to know, or knows of a way to clean it up.
Area Code (not finished but good enough to work with the save/load system)
area
    house
        var
            owner = "None"
            hnum = 0
            price = 50000
            guest = list()
        house_1
            hnum = 1
        house_2
            hnum = 2
            price = 25000
        house_3
            hnum = 3
        house_4
            hnum = 4
        house_5
            hnum = 5
        house_6
            hnum = 6
        house_7
            hnum = 7
        house_8
            hnum = 8
        house_9
            hnum = 9
        house_10
            hnum = 10

I wouldn't recomend using this code unless you fully understand it. Also because the code refers to procs/vars not defined in the code i showed.

The code is pretty stretched. Look up the '&&' operator to trim the code down.
