About Sign Labels

From mod.io

Lets arrows and other signs carry a label, edited in the game's own sign window.

Sign Labels

Give your arrow signs — and six other signs — a label of their own.

Core Keeper's text sign already lets you write on it. The placeable arrow doesn't, and neither do the skull, brute, warning and wooden signs — so marking a waypoint with an arrow has always meant planting a separate text sign right next to it. Sign Labels fixes that: interact with any of these seven signs and the game's own sign window opens, exactly like it does on a text sign.

Features

  • Seven signs get a label, edited in the game's own sign window — text, visibility toggle, parental filter and controller support all included:
  • Arrow Sign (Richtungsschild)
  • Skull Effigy (Schädel-Schild)
  • Brute Sign (Schläger-Schild)
  • Yellow Warning Sign (Gelbes Warnschild)
  • Red Warning Sign (Rotes Warnschild)
  • Wooden Sign "Core" (Holzschild „Kern")
  • Wooden Sign "Tulip" (Holzschild „Tulpe")
  • Visibility per sign, same as the vanilla text sign: Off, only while targeted, or Always.
  • A Default visibility option (Options → Mod settings → Sign Labels) sets what a freshly placed sign starts at — Off, Hover or Always, default Hover. Only your own placements are affected; a sign loaded from a save keeps its saved state.
  • Mining a labelled sign always drops exactly one, whatever its visibility is set to.
  • Works alongside More Labels with its default settings. Its hover option should apply to these signs' labels as well, but that has not been tested yet.

Requirements

  • CoreLib (required)
  • Mod Settings Menu (required) — hosts the in-game settings screen

mod.io will prompt you to install both when you subscribe. Both are also needed on the server side, so a server running this mod needs them installed there as well.

Good to know

  • Verified on Core Keeper 1.3.0.4.
  • The three signs that already have a vanilla label — the text sign, the metropolis sign and the excavation sign — are untouched.
  • Holoboards (the small, large and broken info board) are not covered.

Built with the official Pugstorm Core Keeper Mod SDK. Personal-use, non-commercial (Core Keeper EULA). Not affiliated with or endorsed by Pugstorm.
