One of the things I've been trying to do on my Old West themed park is build structures similar to what you would actually see in the Old West. The only trouble is that a lot of buildings in that time had their signage painted directly onto the building, rather than on a separate piece of metal or wood.
I'd really like to see this ability in Planet Coaster.
Currently I've got a workaround where I sink a sign, with the text that I want, into the wall until only the text clips through. This works better on some walls than others and, at a distance, the sign still shows up on the building so I try to keep it a matching color to the wall. Also the lettering doesn't pick up the texture of the wall so it doesn't look completely like it's painted on there. Also, if I use a lit sign, the lettering lights up at night like a neon sign, which is kind of cool but doesn't really fit in with an old west saloon.
What I'd like to have is the ability to type out my text, maybe bend it around a shape, and then slap it on wall where if it's made out of brick the letters will pick up that brick texture while still maintaining the colors that I set for them.
It's not just in the old west where people did this. Back in the thirties they used to paint Coke and Pepsi advertisements on the sides of buildings too. So maybe an option to apply pictures in the game, in this way, would be great too.
P.S.
Like everybody else is saying, I could really use some midway games for my park.
