Currently due to aesthetic/technical limitations, signs with 2 messages can only be MONOCHROME (one color)!

Hi everyone, this is my latest concept - dynamic LED signs.

I (as you probably know) focus on buses, so that's what my use of this tech will be, as shown in the example provided.

It took me about 10 minutes to XML this message.

I'll take limited requests on a first-come, first-serve basis if anyone is interested in a similar sign with 2 or 3 completely distinct messages.

-

Operation:
1 - enables sign

-

Notes:
The example shown here shows 2 messages:
6 SEPULVEDA BLVD
UCLA-WESTWOOD
which is the headsign of a Culver City Bus.

Also, this is one of MANY reasons why we need to be able to have lights be different colors when on and when off.

Enjoy!

    @jsaret I'm on iOS so I can't, but look up MARTA bus if you have the time (the signs are white or orange)

    @FgFg I can work on this; however it is a max of 2 messages. Please let me know which two you want.

    I will do a better likeness if you provide a link to a picture of a bus with the sign (if it exists).

    Thanks

    @Icarus no idea why you posted this here. Please copy your comment to here, the Helium Mod Page.

    I saw one mod about helium. The problem was you couldnt place thr block because it floated away. Perhaps add another slider like the fuel bar to fusulage blocks that vhanged the gravity on then to act like helium... Makeing it possible to make airships based on weight and small amounts of durectional thrust

    can you make a light that blinks twice with a .5 second time between it and then a 1 second pause (kinda like the strobe lights on a airliner)

    @MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation Then please use the sign mentioned in the description to paint your own message. It's pretty straightforward.

    @MechWARRIOR57 I xml'd the blink program. With a little magic, some scripts, a spreadsheet and Command-F, it takes 10-20 minutes depending on whether or not I screw it up the first (or second/third/etc) time I do it.

    Got a request?
