Minefield signs
I was thinking about this for awhile. Is there a way to mod an existing sign or maybe for the devs to create a sign for minefields. Wheather you are playing single player or with friends I would bet most people here have accidently blown themselves up with their own or friends mines. Not to mention I think it would look cool.

Customizable signs are already coming in A15. :-]

A generic "danger" sign, just a skull maybe, for a game like 7dtd is something you don't really need to have a discussion if it should be added to the game. Hell, people used this "don't use" sign that was just a placeholder for developers a quadrillion times for a lack of anything that could work as a "stay away" or "danger" sign.

if added I guess it will be used in nearly every base build at least once.

Maybe they'll make signs with pictures? One can dream...

What about a generic danger sign, and you can type into the text to specify what danger it is? Like a skull sign, with a smaller text sign beneath it. I'd craft hundreds of the things!

In the interim, you could just lay down an empty explosives box to mark your minefields.

Wouldn't a danger sign sort of negate the point of the minefield's purpose? eg, the surprise? Well...I mean, for MP/other players/PvP servers, or for any POI's. Because wouldn't such a sign be visible to everyone, not just the person who laid the mines down?

Not saying it wouldn't be cool/useful in SP or between friends when just playing against zombies, tho. Just wondering how that would work PvP. I'd guess just not use them in that situation...

Or you could put them up as a deterrent without actually placing any mines...

As someone who has blown himself and allies up several times with mines, I wholeheartedly support this.

P.S.

Great idea.

I've been using the triangular red/yellow biohazard or whatever it is sign in the developers box.

I was thinking something like this https://alanrossiterphotography.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/achtung-minen.jpg small not to much higher than knee hight and of course in English not German.

I agree and I've thought and thought about it and I couldn't come up with anything really. I've never played multiplayer how does the teams work? Are there official teams or is it just a group of friends who divide the teams? If there are offical teams (like red team blue team lets say) then the only thing I could come up with is somehow for the game to be programmed so only teamates can see the signs.
