Talk:Sign

Some one needs to change the block type it even says non solid on the bottom >_> i didnt change because im afraid ill screw some thing up

"Stacked" Signs
I thought it was worth pointing out that, in SMP atleast, I'm not sure about SSP, signs can be placed on another sign (including on the sides)


 * That's already in the article. “Signs may be placed attached to any block, including ones such as fences, glass, other signs, and minecart tracks which torches cannot be attached to.” —KPReid 01:58, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * You can't really place them on air blocks... MaxKing 19:29, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Unhelpful really. Air blocks are, for all intents and purposes, not there. --Bmambl 14:10, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Character problems
I have never been able to type Asian characters onto signs in game, however I didn't put that directly in the article as I wanted to know if it was reproducible by others and whether there were other character sets affected (e.g. Greek, Cyrillic, Arabic, etc.). Thanks ... gacorley


 * I can't type Asian characters in either. I don't think it's a bug, it's just not a character set that Minecraft supports. --Bmambl 14:09, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Signs don't show cracks
I figured out today signs do not show the breaking animation. Weird huh?

 * Theyve never done that.Toadbert


 * I've seen signs display the breaking animation. I think it broke some time around 1.3 or 1.4. —KPReid 14:05, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

They do not, they are a entity. Using zombe's mod, and highlight mode which highlights all entities, it highlights signs, paintings, mobs, boats/minecarts. BUT it shows a bounding box when selected, unlike paintings. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 14:09, 31 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I dont remember signs ever doing this, can someone give proof?Toadbert


 * Signs are blocks, not entities. And the are not highlighted. What you saw in zombe's modpack, was a Tile Entity in the same position as block. If you manage to place a sign without a tile entity, it will not be highlighted. DiEvAl 10:58, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
