🌟 SignBuilder v1.4 Update Changelog

✨ New Features

• Multi-Block LCD Screens:

  • Added connected LCD Screen blocks with seamless dynamic borders (master/slave multiblock system).
  • Custom high-tech digital fonts: Modern LCD, 7-Segment, Dot Matrix, Retro Arcade, and Vanilla.
  • Feature-packed dual-mode GUI with live canvas preview:
  • Text & Format: Dual-line inputs, formatting bar (Bold, Italic, Underline), quick color palette, and live dynamic variables.
  • Visuals & Effects: Text effects (Auto-scroll, Glitch, Wave, Rainbow Flow, Typewriter), alignment options, 4-corner widgets, and 15 color themes.
  • Fullscreen Animations: 24 interactive and procedural animations including Pong, Flappy Bird, Tetris, Matrix Rain, Audio Spectrum, and 3D visuals.
  • Balanced survival crafting recipe and loot table.

• 5x5 Grid & Multi-Grid Mode:

  • Added 5x5 grid mode alongside 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4.
  • Sub-cell collision system allowing letters of different grid sizes to coexist on the same block without overlapping.
  • Independent front and back face cell mapping.

• Glow Ink Support Across All Blocks:

  • Apply Glow Ink Sacs to make any block surface (letters, backplates, grid signs) full-bright in the dark, and regular Ink Sacs to remove the glow effect.
  • Independent front and back face glow state support, preserved during block interactions and grid conversions.

• Hybrid 1x1 Glyphs on Backplates:

  • Support for attaching 1x1 full-size letters onto backplates alongside grid letters.
  • Full material texture, dye color, and rainbow effect support on attached 1x1 glyphs.

🛠️ Blueprint & GUI Overhaul

• Interactive Multi-Grid Blueprint Canvas: Redesigned screen supporting layout editing across all grid sizes (2x2 to 5x5).
• Collision & Overflow Previews: Red ghost highlights now warn against placing letters over existing characters or beyond backplate chains in banner mode.
• Auto-Scaling UI Text: Button texts dynamically scale to eliminate text overflow across all languages and GUI scales.

🎮 Gameplay & Quality of Life

• Individual Letter Removal (Grid Mode): While in grid mode, Sneak + Right-Click directly on a grid letter or attached glyph to safely detach and return it to your inventory.
• Authentic Audio & Animations: Added wood placement, walking, and breaking sounds to backplates, along with proper arm swing animations.

⚡ Performance & Optimization

• LCD Screen Caching: Cached multiblock dimensions and network scans, updating only when neighboring blocks change.
• Render Pipeline Improvements: Precomputed font styles, optimized FPS variable checks, and refined bounding boxes for view frustum culling.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Survival Breaking & Drops: Fixed a bug where mod blocks (letters, backplates, grid signs, LCD screens) took abnormally long to break bare-handed and failed to drop their items in survival mode. Fixed blocks missing from the pickaxe-mineable tag.
• Block Destruction Cracks: Fixed a bug where the block breaking crack/crumbling animation was invisible while mining letters and LCD screens.
• Back-Side Wall Placement: Fixed raycasting and offset math preventing letters and blueprints from being placed on the rear face of wall backplates.
• Diagonal & Ceiling/Floor Backplates: Corrected orientation and interaction calculations for diagonal (45°), floor, and ceiling mounted backplates.
• Banner Overwrite Protection: Stamping blueprints onto existing signs no longer accidentally destroys existing characters.

🌐 Localization

• Full localization synchronization across 13 languages (English, Turkish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese).
