+# Mineclone2-Signs
+---
+A reworking of MineClone 2's mcl_signs to be colorable and made to glow. Rquires Minetest and Mineclone2.
+---
+
+Created by Michieal (FaerRaven) @ DateTime: 10/14/22 4:05 PM
+
+
+Reworked to be an API and to allow players to color, and/or make the lettering for the signs glow (be bright at night).
+Reworked by Michieal (FaerRaven), including the sign textures batch changed to be white instead of the original black.
+
+A special thanks to Cora for pointing me in the right direction (as always).
+
+
+The original Mod, MCL_SIGNS is based on reworked signs mod by PilzAdam:

 Signs can be written and come in two variants: Wall sign and sign on a sign post. Signs can be placed on the top and the sides of other blocks, but not below them.=
-After placing the sign, you can write something on it. You have 4 lines of text with up to 15 characters for each line; anything beyond these limits is lost. Not all characters are supported. The text can not be changed once it has been written; you have to break and place the sign again.=
