Lettering Category

I love the new Light Box Lettering, but I also think it would be useful if Frontier provided us more lettering options in different fonts and gave it a category of its own. Albeit smaller in size than the Light Box Lettering.

Some of the styles could be:
- Lit blocky lettering
- Neon lettering
- Sci-fi lettering
- Adventure lettering
- Horror lettering
- Gothic lettering
- Zany lettering
- Script lettering

It would be great to have more options for custom signs.

Great idea!

I especially like the lettering around themes such as spooky and we could use a big 'stone' lettering for the adventure theming too.

Scalable (word?) letters would be ideal. Multiple themes that you can then click and drag to make the perfect size. Not sure how that works with the engine. Otherwise generic sizes that are scaled to existing objects (ie signs).

Judging from the concept arts there were plans to just that. They had big (and great looking) ideas for custom signage and 3D fonts, but somehow the implementation was botched up royally. Up to a point where the signs are hardly of any use at all, and players are asking for better alternatives.
