    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    All Main Servers
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Editable Signs
    What are you suggesting:
    Add the ability to r-click signs to edit them rather than having to break the signs and recreate all the content and color formatting again.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    This allows players to be more immediately reactive to changes in value as the economy fluctuates. Some of the big prestige shops have hundreds of buy chests that need to be edited every time the price of an item changes due to demand or an administrative change in tool ability (for example when the price of nwart changed multiple times in a short period previously. If players could simply r-click the sign and edit the existing text on the sign, it would take half the time (or less) to adapt to the new economy for that item.
    The benefits don't end with shop signs. As the mayor of a community town, myself and my co-mayors are constantly having to update plot signs with the names of residents. Whenever a new resident is added or evicted from a plot, the sign gets changed. These signs have color formatting than needs to be updated as well as the content. It would be a lot easier if the could be edited with a r-click.
    Other information:
    Have you ever created a complex sign with lots of text, color, bold formatting, etc. and as soon as you click <Done>, you realize there's a mistake? Headache, right? There are a number of plugins on the market that would make editing a sign an option. Here's a link to a video showing how it works (just an example).

    Plugin or custom addition:
    Editable Sign: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/editablesign.2502/
    Sign Edit: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/signedit-for-bukkit.47604/
    Editable Signs: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/✅-editablesigns-✅-1-17.93912/

    I'm not a developer, so don't have a preference, just that we have this ability on ECC. i can't see a down-side.
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    From my previous knowledge i think editable signs messes something up with chestshops/makes it difficult but if it doesnt, or that can be fixed i like this idea as well,

    +1 if possible.

    also a +1 if this doesn't mess with the chest shops. Possibly disabling the ability to edit the chest shop signs?
    I have messed up more signs than I'd care to count. And also hate to admit how many times I've accidentally destroyed the contents behind the sign while breaking them with an axe...

    Andrew has never liked the idea of editable signs.
