Creating kit signs
To create a kit sign, simply create a new sign with the details as shown on the left. Fill in the kit name, and if you have permission the kit sign will turn dark red and become active. If you use a plugin such as ServerSigns, you could also add commands to such a sign. The config allows finer control of whether the use of kit signs ignores permissions, costs, world restrictions etc and the kit signs can be an attractive way of letting your users pick their kit without having to use commands.
