- "Home sweet home."
A Sign is an item that must be crafted.
Appearance
A sign is a rectangle with a brown, wood-like texture. It's about two blocks wide and one block tall, but due to being centered in a block space when placed it overlaps the adjacent block spaces.
When in place, signs appear in the foreground. Blockheads pass behind them.
Where Found
A sign must be created in a woodwork bench. It takes one (1) wood to make a sign.
Using
The primary use of a sign is to display text in a world. The displayed text is centered on the sign in up to three lines, any or all of which may be blank.
Placing a sign will earn a player the "Home Sweet Home" achievement.
Each sign can have its own individual text, which is retained if the sign is moved (just as a chest or shelf's contents travel with their container). Signs are created blank, and when first placed the user is prompted to type in the desired text. Selecting a placed sign prompts for its removal or editing of its text.
Because they appear in the foreground, it should be possible to use signs as a type of "privacy wall" that Blockheads can stand behind and not be easily found.
When introduced in version 1.3, trying to save text for a sign might abort the app. This was corrected in version 1.3.1.
