You need to use images for that. Look them up in the DM Reference. :P

Instead of having seperate areas for each direction, you should make one object and one area, using the atom.dir var to configure the sucking proc.


Anyway, the system you have is pretty inneficient, but as you have it, you would do:

mob/verb/Open_Airlock()

    for(var/area/SuckableNorth/N in world)//For more information, look up for() list in the DM Ref
        new/obj/SuckNorth(N)

    for(var/area/SuckableSouth/S in world)
        new/obj/SuckSouth(S)

    for(var/area/SuckableEast/E in world)
        new/obj/SuckEast(E)

    for(var/area/SuckableWest/W in world)
        new/obj/SuckWest(W)
