if isFlashing then                                           -- if the area is already flashing...
    outputChatBox ( "The radar area is already flashing." )
else                                                         -- if it isn't...
    setRadarAreaFlashing ( someArea, true )                  -- make the area flash
end

local hillArea = createColSquare ( -2171.0678710938, 678.17950439453, 0, 15, 15 )
local hillRadar = createRadarArea ( -2183.5678710938, 705.67950439453, 40, -40, 0, 255, 0, 175 )

    outputChatBox( getPlayerName(thePlayer) .. " entered the zone!", root, 255, 255, 109 )
    setRadarAreaFlashing ( hillRadar, true )
end
addEventHandler ( "onColShapeHit", hillArea, hill_Enter )
