XirmiX 754 Report post Posted March 2, 2014 I kind of hate it that making sign posts is useless as it'll allways say "you're here". It's best that you can write what you want so for example may be already there would be a sign post that says "pig village" so you know what you might be comming accross before you go through it.

Mutton Time 10 Report post Posted March 2, 2014 Seconded. Kind of surprised to read that this wasn't implemented already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaconAndRibs 11 Report post Posted March 2, 2014 There is a mod that allows you to write what you want on the signs but already having signs around the world would be nice. Then it would be slightly easier to find stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brummbar7 513 Report post Posted March 2, 2014 It's been suggested many, many, MANY times. Since signs first came into existence I think. Either Klei doesn't like the idea, or there are technical problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaphy 1 Report post Posted March 3, 2014 the only use of a sign is to get the snity boost when first madeSadly this is quite true for me to. I would be quite happy to even have some method to differentiate them. Small selection of pictures or something like that. Or color. I would love to use signs to mark which wormholes are pairs with each other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XirmiX 754 Report post Posted March 3, 2014 I myself would like to make a village called "spiderville", lol and around the post would be web silk around it. Being able to make them different colour would also be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbeetle 1873 Report post Posted March 3, 2014 the only use of a sign is to get the snity boost when first madeAnother use is to use them at wormholes. A matching number of signs denotes which wormhole it will go to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MilleniumCount 2161 Report post Posted March 3, 2014 That's what I use them for, too. They are utterly useless....as if they want to mock you for crafting a sign on an totally unknown land...I mean what is Wilson even thinking...why would he need a sign.....''You are here'' it's just this little insurance of sanity... and that is all about signs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brummbar7 513 Report post Posted March 3, 2014 Not totally useless currently. I've used them to mark fairy rings or other high concentrations of mushrooms. Or fireflies. I usually just mark wormholes with a sapling, using the cardinal direction from the wormhole to match them up. But they definitely could be improved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XirmiX 754 Report post Posted March 4, 2014 Right, but this doesn't really explain why you say the thing is useless yet useful? That don't make sense! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brummbar7 513 Report post Posted March 4, 2014 Think of it like a paradox. We need an utterly useless item, as a base line for judging the usefullness of all other items. Paradoxically, by serving this purpose, the utterly useless item has a use. Mind blown! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
