The Metal Wall Sign lets players display a short message to other players. Edit the text as many times as needed with the 'Use' key (E, Y, Triangle).

Construction

Wall signs attach directly to the face of walls, but do not snap to any structures. Care must be taken during placement as the texture of the wall behind can protrude through the sign itself.

Painting and Color Regions

In addition to its preset paint regions, you can doodle on the Metal Wall Sign by "attacking" it with a  Paintbrush, which will open the "Apply Paint" Menu. Then, click and drag your cursor over the 3D model (like a paintbrush) to draw anything you want. See Painting for more information on doodling.

For more information on Paint Regions and how to use them, please view the Blue Coloring.png Dye,  Paintbrush, or  Spray Painter pages.
