I've never seen something like this before. If it would be easy to add, I think it would be a cool addition to the economy. However, if these "access signs" are used for the purpose of letting someone enter an area (for a certain amount of money), players could always sethome in these paid areas so they could return whenever they need to use whatever service is being provided to them. I mean, that could be an issue, but I don't see it as being the main reason this would be held back because most players wouldn't do that. I'll give this a +1 for the fact that it would be useful for town owners and people trying to make some extra money, but it would have to be easy to add or it wouldn't be worth the time for the developers.

However, the only downside is that this would most likely only be available to people who have extcreations, so the only people who can profit from them would be the people who have the feature. You couldn't get someone to place them for you, unless you trust them to pay you all of the money they made from them. That would ruin the purpose of new players using this to make some extra money off their towns, but then again, it would give them more of a reason to purchase extcreations.

 

I was going to do something like this with the maze, have a paid entrance, because it got a lot of activity, I would set up a macro so that if someone paid me at least $100 they would receive a tpahere request. With just me being AFK, this would work perfectly!!

 

Oh absolutely! Your idea is much better for something to do when you aren't online, and mine has MANY idea flaws, but I was just saying something I could have done for a bit

 

Oh god YES PLEASE! +googol

 

See https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/suggestion-sign-redstone-logic-gates.31063/#post-140705 as to why this can't be done.

 

So all of the buy signs and bridge signs, etc. use redstone?

 

No, the point of this post is that essentials cannot output a redstone signal from the signs and nor will this happen.
